Description:
- New York City's Statue of Liberty is the only copper statue bigger than this. This lady is kneeling down to Portland—her city. Her face, hair, extended arms and trident have been hammered to shape. Modeled after the city's seal, this version of Lady Commerce watches over the streets from the Portland Building. While she conjures the city's mythology and past, the 1980s office building looks a bit drab. It has history, however—it is supposedly the first post-modern structure of its size in the country.
