Germany Symphonie in red
The street has multiple architectural sculptures.
Large-scale steel objects such as this one are typical of the work of sculptor John Henry (born in Lexington, USA, in 1943). He chose “Symphony in Red” for the central island of Königsworther Platz, an important traffic junction in Hanover. Five multi-lane roads intersect here, making the location almost always noisy, dynamic, and multi-layered. Thrown down like a game of Mikado, the stacked steel rods reflect the complexity of the location

Photography Tips
There is no direct access for pedestrians, so you have to shoot either from the sides, or cross the street to reach the "Symphonie" without being noticed :)
