Photograph of Falsetate Tower by artist David Sullivan, designed for an art installation in a gutted house at 2426 Bradish Place, which is near the old Flastaff Brewery. The painting on the fence in the background is by Michelle Levine.

David Sullivan's comments: "The Falstaff brewery tower's glowing orb used to alert the neighborhood to weather conditions. My 10-foot high, cobbled-together tower, Falsestate, comments on the current conditions I see in the city."
