Stationed at the edge of the AT&T Discovery District, this is an amazing statue that tends to be overlooked due to its location. Depicts a man armed with electricity and cables.

AT&T Should hype this statue up a bit more. It is pretty awesome. More companies need sculptures like this. It is pretty awesome and a nice tourist attraction. If you re near by it is worth a look.

What to say about the Spirit of Communication in the AT&T Discovery District at Uptown Dallas? What a beautiful sculpture. Its golden color makes it impossible to miss, and it reminds you of the angel of independence in Mexican city and the golden sculpture in London. I highly recommend it!

Nice place to reflect and take in some sites. I found it curious to discover how The Golden Boy was moved here from a building in NY...
