The opening of the Alcazaba tunnel in 1999 allowed the pedestrianization of Alcazabilla street in its entirety, leaving open areas that have been occupied by bar terraces in its section closest to the Plaza de María Guerrero . In the central part of the street there is the rear façade of the Picasso Museum that has a wooded garden next to the Judería de Málaga and a small square, called the Plaza de la Judería formed around the Mudejar tower , which serves as a union with the Calle Granada and where the construction of a synagogue is also planned. There is also a small garden called Jardines de Ibn Gabirol, which has a sculpture in homage to this Malacitan poet and philosopher from Andalusia On the side closest to the side of the Alcazaba is the Albéniz cinema building, built in 1945 and combining historicist architecture with the Californian style of some movie theaters in the United States. Next to this building is the Interpretation Center and the Roman Theater of Malaga , discovered in 1951 and excavated between 1994 and 2010 after the demolition of the House of Culture, which occupied part of the space. In the central area of the road a small glass pyramid allows to observe the archaeological remains found in the subsoil, mainly garum pools; providing natural light to the reservoir at the same time.

Busan (Latinized as "Pusan" before 2000) is a port city at the far southeastern corner of the Korean peninsula. Busan is South Korea’s second largest metropolis after Seoul, with a population of approximately 3.6 million. It is the largest port city in South Korea and the world’s fifth busiest seaport by cargo tonnage. This sculpture is entitled "Coexistence." It symbolically evokes the principle of the harmony between development and conservation that the city has set as a priority. Through sustainable development, a variety of habitats have been maintained within the city for species such as Japanese cranes. This is one of the four species of cranes that pass through South Korea during one stage in their migration and it is a species that is threatened by human activity. The Demilitarized Zone along the boundary between North and South Korea provides a sanctuary for these birds and for the white-naped crane as well. The man in traditional Korean costume is performing the Dongnae Crane Dance (Dongnae-Hak-chum) and imitating the crane’s movements, highlighting the interaction between humans and nature in the past. The dancers are costumed all in white, including a tunic with wide sleeves that imitate the crane’s wings. Their black hat evokes the bird’s head. This flowing, poetic dance is regularly performed by Korea’s leading dance companies.

This painted wood sculpture, in the atrium of the redeveloped Sinclair Centre, shows a man high-stepping, waving his briefcase and holding what looks like a glass of draft beer. A woman is holding a bouquet of flowers and a glass of wine. John Hooper created it during the centennial sculpture symposium. He was born in England, raised in China, served in the British Army in India and settled in New Brunswick, finally dedicating himself to art and earning an Order of Canada. The statue faces the entrance to the Canada Passport office. Usually live people waiting for a Canadian passport don’t look quite this happy. Not after three months of waiting, at any rate!

Sinclair Centre is an upscale shopping mall in Downtown Vancouver, British Columbia. It is located at 757 West Hastings Street between Granville and Howe streets. The centre comprises four heritage buildings that were restored and joined together by a glass atrium roof in 1986. The buildings that comprise the centre are the Post Office (1910), the handsome and architecturally esteemed Winch Building (1911), the Customs Examining Warehouse (1913), and the Federal Building (1937). The main post office was housed here from 1910 until the new one opened in 1958. The Post Office Building is in an Edwardian Baroque style, combining English and French influences. It features an atrium clock consisting of four 12-foot-diameter (3.7 m) clocks built in 1909 and is the largest clock movement in Western Canada; the minute hands alone weigh 92 kilograms (202 pounds) each. In addition to the mall, the building has a seven floor office tower occupied by the federal government.
