The Herald reports:

A $200,000 public sculpture being installed in is causing a stir with locals, who say it resembles a penis.

More than resembles 'd say!

The -commissioned Transit Cloud has been created as part of a project to breathe new life into traditionally working class New Lynn.

Will Mayor Len Brown launch the sculpture? That would be a photo op!

“What the hell is that? It's certainly not a cloud. It looks like a penis,” said Joy Dale, of Mt Roskill.

She said the sculpture was a waste of ratepayers' money and the council would be better spending the money on more security and patrols in the area.

Indeed.
