Height[edit]

Hey, it just occurred to me to ask how tall it is now. Strictly speaking, the infobox is currently a little misleading about that. Arlo James Barnes 00:49, 20 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I modified the infobox to reflect this. It would be good to know how tall the cube is. Is "The Cube" what locals are calling this structure? Just curious. Netherzone (talk) 18:47, 21 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

No, that's just what I'm calling it; it amuses me. I don't believe it has an official name, since despite the new sturdier cement board construction it's meant to be a nonstructure, merely preventing further damage to the monument base but not asserting an architectural vision beyond that. Arlo James Barnes 21:57, 21 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I like that - The Cube. Netherzone (talk) 22:04, 21 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Seems to be in the process of transitioning from temporary to semi-permanent architectural status... Arlo James Barnes 08:55, 6 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
