Fire and Rescue Monument for Toledo, Ohio

Location: Proposed Fire and Rescue Monument for Toledo, Ohio
Size: Over Life Size Bronze Sculpture with Granite and Concrete Construction
Year Completed: 2007

Fire, Water, Earth, Air

We propose an inspired design that manifests the humanity of dedicated firefighters engaged in a perpetual struggle with the elemental forces that both imperil and save lives. Creating a dramatically heroic image coupled with an intimately contemplative space, this design would be a landmark memorial that would stand in testament to the enduring vigilance of Firefighters.

Concept Design and Graphic Illustration by Brad Bourgoyne with Slater as Sculptor and leader of the team. Slater and Bourgoyne were named top two finalists with over 75 sculpture teams competing for this project.
