Ian Rank-Broadley's new statue, Man Leading Horse, stands as a tribute to the area's historical significance, highlighting the industrious role of horses and workers in transporting goods along the Regent's Canal during mid-20th century.
The unveiling ceremony celebrated a remarkable transformation of 1.9 acres into public green space, embodying a blend of history and modern living with the addition of homes, businesses, and public artworks which honor local heritage.
In his address, Mr. Rank-Broadley emphasized the importance of remembering the labor behind the area's legacy, stating, 'These sculptures are not just art; they represent the laborers’ stories that shaped our community through hard work on the canals.'
Justin Tibaldi from Berkeley Homes remarked, 'Ian's sculptures connect the site's industrial past with its vibrant future,' illustrating a commitment to honoring history while creating a thriving neighborhood for the community.
