Wedge was visible on the first floor. Note that the three pieces are supposed to fit together. The wedge, if rotated, appeared to fit in the base of the leftmost column.

One column rose past the second floor. It is the shorter of the two.

Viewed from below, the columns created a majestic sight.

The taller column rose high over the Cinema.
