The upper garden above Noguchi's house, workshops and studio - there are two major stone/metal/landscape works in this area ..... and the whole landscape is mounded and sculpted. As rather appropriate 'borrowed scenery' there is a distant view of one of the regions many stone quarries.

Artist: Isamu Noguchi
Noguchi Playscapes
The Isamu Noguchi Playscapes, a sculptural playground, was commissioned in 1975 by the High Museum of Art in Atlanta, Georgia, and realized in 1976. The museum donated the work to Atlanta in honor of the city’s bicentennial. Former mayor Maynard Jackson accepted the gift on the city’s behalf.
The sculptural playground is a learning environment that children can enjoy and explore. Playscapes is also an exceptional work of art created by a preeminent sculptor. Although Noguchi proposed a number of play environments, only Atlanta’s was completed in the continental United States during his lifetime.
Isamu Noguchi
(1904-1988)
Isamu Noguchi was one of the twentieth century’s most important sculptors and designers. His versatility as an artist is evident in works ranging from abstract sculpture, to gardens, to furniture, to set designs. Noguchi’s innovative parks, plazas, fountains, playgrounds, and public pieces are celebrated around the world.
Noguchi was born in Los Angeles in 1904 to an American writer and a Japanese poet. Raised in Japan, he was sent back to the U.S. to study at the age of 13. While attending the Leonardo da Vinci School of Art, in New York City, he quickly established himself as a skilled academic sculptor. A Guggenheim Fellowship awarded in 1927 in recognition of his talent enabled him to spend three years studying abroad. This brought Noguchi into contact with such leading modern artists in Europe as sculptor Constantin Brancusi, who introduced Noguchi to stone carving. In 1930, Noguchi traveled back to Japan. While studying Zen gardens and Eastern architecture, he became interested in integrating art with the everyday environment. Isamu Noguchi’s prolific and varied body of work can be viewed at The Noguchi Museum, created by himself in Long Island City, New York.

The Southeast Financial Center, previously known as the the Waschovia Financial Center, at 200 South Biscayne, consists of a 765-foot office tower a 15-story parking garage. When topped-off in August 1983 to the design of Skidmore, Owings & Merrill, it was the tallest building south of New York City and east of the Mississippi River. It remains the tallest office tower in Florida and the second tallest building in Miami.
This is part of a large sign that sits outside 140 Broadway. The full inscription reads 'Harry B. Helmsley whose richness of spirit and love for New York helped build this great city'. Reflected in the sign is the 'Red Cube' by Isamu Noguchi.
