    Tacoma's 'Sun King,' a three-ton, 15-foot-tall, 22-foot-wide steel frame sculpture by Corvallis, Ore., artist Tom Morandi is being stored at the City of Tacoma's Fleet Operations Headquarters. It sat near the corner of Broadway and South 13th Street for three decades before it was placed in storage seven years ago to make way for a new piece of public art. City of Tacoma welder Brad Bloodgood restored the piece of public art several years ago. Sun King could soon be placed in a park near Thea Foss Waterway. (PHOTO BY TODD MATTHEWS)
