## Description

[edit]

Bill Will's Passage consists of 36 weathered steel boat sculptures installed adjacent to MAX Orange Line tracks along Southeast 17th Avenue between McLoughlin and Powell boulevards. According to TriMet, which began installing the sculptures in March–April 2014, the "pieces draw on the natural history of the area while celebrating the Portland-Milwaukie light rail transit project's green street improvements in the corridor".[1] The project's cost was not confirmed in TriMet's announcement.[1]
