Cupid's Garden is a stainless steel sculpture on a traffic island on a busy street in Arlington VA. The arrows are supposed to suggest Cupid's arrows but to me they symbolized the usually messy traffic around Rosslyn.
As part of a street art project, a group called the Guerrilla Stitch Brigade "yarn-bombed" the sculpture with hand-knitted and crocheted animals, flowers, and banners. It looks a lot more light-hearted and romantic now.


Alas, since I took the photo, someone "adopted" a goose. The bunny and frog are still there. So cute! More info here
