In 1996, 12 years after it was originally commissioned, “Equality” was dedicated at the 1-90 Viewpoint. One of the original artists, Don Scott, died before it was finished, and the artwork was redesigned by artists Rolon Bert Garner and Ken Leback. The artwork is comprised of 35 small granite houses on a grid set against a larger bronze house on a hill of grass. Amid the grid of houses is a plaque bearing a quotation from Alexis de Toqueville’s “Democracy in America.”
