Actually, Marabar, the million-pound granite sculpture, isn’t the problem: The National Geographic Society’s plan for expansion is the problem. Artist Elyn Zimmerman isn’t happy with the plan. “In 2017, when she was first told about the proposal, she said she did not take it seriously at first because so much work had gone into preparing the site for its installation. The plaza infrastructure below the pool and boulders was engineered to support Marabar, she said, and district officials had to reinforce sewer lines before trucks could drive over them to deliver the granite in 1984.’ – The New York Times
