South Orange residents have an eye for art and a collective green thumb. Can anyone identify where this photo was taken, and what we see?

This is a tough one! I'm going to have to search South Orange for this.

Scott, If you don't know, then I know it's a tough one! I think you know SO better than almost anyone.

You know your South Orange! I'd love to know the story of this sculpture and how it came to be on Irvington. Anyone know? Thank you. More challenges ahead in the coming week...

Wow!, Marcia, as I previous winner of the "where is it?", you had me stumped!!!! (Just saw this Friday, the 12th) Great trivia, like "the name of Dudley Do-Rights horse", makes you say, "I know that!", and the way you perfectly set it up makes it seem like some multi lane thoroughfare, and the kind of non-descript house in the background does not seem typical of South Orange. I happen to really like the kind of "mobius strip" sculpture, and now that someone mentioned it, I still only "kind of" remember it, have to go by and see it "again" "for the first time".
Love to hear any follow up about it. I must have walked by it many times. BTW, Jared Kofsky gave a talk on the history of the train/train station when SOHPS gave a Preservation Award to NJ Transit for the SO station. Great, enthusiastic young man!!!
