Stamford Outdoor Public Art: High Ridge Park Corporate Center


Click on this Video to Experience Mobile Art Work at
High Ridge Park Corporate Center



Just behind the High Ridge Center Strip Mall near Merritt Parkway exit 35, lies one of the public art gems of Stamford: a mobile artwork sitting at the entrance to an inviting business park

In front of Building Two of the High Ridge Park Corporate Center sits a most fascinating work of art. As seen in both the photo and video, the piece rests on a circular conical base, attached to which are two more winglike cones that move about in the wind currents.

Consisting of 6 buildings built over a 6 year period from 1967-1973 on 40 acres, the park affords the visitor a marvelous, serene, green space environment replete with outdoor pools and sitting areas around the buildings.

It is well worth the trip and shows what planning and foresight can produce here in our jewel like, pristine environs.
