Since 1979, just north of the Fremont Bridge, the Interurban’s six cast aluminum figures (including a dog) have stood waiting for a cast aluminum bus that never arrives.

Now subject to frequent — and encouraged — “art attacks,” the Interurban is forever festooned with layers of junk, clothing, and masquerade attire, celebrating whatever.
