Photos of Freedom Park (Arlington, Virginia)

'Dark Star Park' by Artist Nancy Holt -- Rosslyn (VA) August 3, 2012 by Ron Cogswell

Arlington's first major commisioned art project, Dark Star Park's large spheres are designed to resemble fallen, extinguished stars. One section of the park contains spheres and poles with shadow-images inset in the ground. Each year on August 1, the date William Henry Ross acquired the land in 1860 that became Rosslyn, the actual shadows align with the shadow-images at 9:32 am.
