visual pun

I see the rock, but I don't see the sham. Unless that's implied by the city in the background? ;-)

Is the "rock" made of resin-bonded glass-fibre? Or was it merely trucked in from an area with a different geology.

Dressed to be the Blarney Stone?

A sham rock with a shamrock, but what are those other smaller leaves?

This is a Rock For All Seasons. It was all gold, then pumpkin colored for Halloween, then was striped like a giant candy corn.

Here's a homage to Prince:

Four leaf clovers, emblematic of the luck of the Irish. (Which has been uniformly bad since about Edward III.)

I think they're sham shamrocks.

I thought it was fake.

In NYC we have to settle for the Empire State Building being lit up in different colors on each holiday. This rock is sort of the Flintstones version of that.

Shamrocks for our real friends, and real rocks for our sham friends.

The lighting on that giant corncob in the background (AKA Salesforce Tower) is sometimes impressive, especially late in the day when the sunlight is almost horizontal. But the optical effects could have been much better, with a bit of thought.

But it's not Art Deco.

No, modern architects aren't allowed to do anything that looks nice.

That must be true. A friend of mine who is an architect recently complained that he must not build anything that looks good. The price decides everything.
