This Cow and Calf were installed on the roofs of the former McConnell's Ice Cream plant. The Cow had been located on top of the former ice cream parlor since at least the 1970s. It had been repainted different colors over the years. The building housed Cities Kitchen restaurant in 2008 when the first photo was taken. By 2011, the restaurant had closed and the building was vacant when the other photos were taken in 2012. In 2015, the Sublime restaurant opened in the building and the cow was painted white. In 2017, Mundos restaurant opened there. The building now houses Bossie's Kitchen. Bossie was wearing a mask in 2020 during the COVID-19 pandemic. A few months later, she fell onto the roof and was badly broken and will not be repaired. For more, see these websites: 1, 2, 3, and 4.
The Calf statue is just down the street and looks in the direction of the cow. I believe the Calf statue was installed around 2010. [map] |
