Art Park Created from Recycled Materials

Art Park Created from Recycled Materials

This vast architectural/art space was the life’s work of an Italian immigrant whose obsession grew and could not be stopped. The Watts Towers come complete with a wonderland of gazebos, fountains and artful mosaics made largely from found objects and recycled materials. At nearly 100 feet in height the towers themselves were cobbled together from a mixture of concrete, steel, mortar and wire mesh. All in all this is one of the most amazing buildings ever built essentially by one dedicated man. (Source)
