Mount Rush Hour

Overview

Sculptor David Adickes placed giant busts of George Washington, Abraham Lincoln, Sam Houston, and Stephen Austin along Interstate 10. If nothing else, the sculptures — adorned with “A Tribute to American Statesmanship” across their bases — provide commuters with a distraction during their rush-hour drives. The park is officially named American Statesmanship Park.
