"Man with a Briefcase," a 50-foot-tall, 22-foot-wide, 24,000-lb hollow-silhouette sculpture in brushed aluminum plate by artist Jonathan Borofsky, towering over Burnett Park at the western entrance to downtown Fort Worth since 2002. Depicts an "everyman" businessman figure, though many locally believe it references Charles Tandy of Fort Worth's Tandy Corporation/RadioShack. Related works by Borofsky stand in Los Angeles, Dallas, Seattle, Seoul, and Frankfurt.
