What it is....
The is a capacitor bank (aka capacitor tree) on the Fermi grounds.
Evidently in times gone past, it was used as part of an electrical power system, now no longer used. The physicist I talked to said they kept it around because "It looks cool" - I agree - tjhat's why I took the picture in the first place.
While there is no proof, it has been theorized (by me) that there is an inifinte supply of surplus orange and blue paint, and that Fermi can only get those colors :-)
