    The proper name of the sculpture is "Cruising San Mateo I." It is the first in a series of 3 installations that were collectively called "Cruising San Mateo." "Cruising San Mateo II" is located a short distance from this one, but "Cruising San Mateo III," which was located about a half mile away, was dismantled after repeated vandalism.
