It has been a great honor to once again work in the shadows of a John Hoover sculpture. The latest response to one of his works was the design / fabrication / installation of a “nest” barrier surround. Just over a year ago we were invited to submit a concept drawing for a solution to prevent further destruction of the bronze sculpture ‘Raven the Creator’ at the Alaska Native Heritage Center. Our proposal was selected out of several submissions and we worked with Angie Demma of ANHC and Anna Hoover, John’s daughter, in the development and refinement of the solution. Today the Intrinsic team installed the 3 custom CNC plasma cut / rolled / powder coated barrier sections. Now the sun, moon, and stars can be reattached to Raven and he can have his way with them (without little punks trying to rip them from his appendages) Until next time - thank you Mr. Hoover for your work / vision / and storytelling - and the inspiration it brings.

Here is a nice, well written summary of the recent history of transactions, roads traveled, and future of the Spenard 🌴 - a project we are excited to be helping with. Thank you Megan Pacer and Alaska News Source for taking the time to share the journey.

Next week, the Spenard palm tree takes one step closer to becoming a permanent installation on the corner of Spenard Road and 30th Avenue.

We have had the pleasure of assisting in the revisioning of the old Paradise Inn site in Spenard. The owner of the site is trying to bring the Palm Tree back to its original site for all to enjoy and has set up a Gofundme fundraiser to assist in offsetting the 🌴 retrofit. Do the neighborly thing and keep our streetscapes alive.
