In loving memory of my grandmother who always stopped

whenever passed this building and pointed to the

chicken figure at the roof top,

'look, a chicken' she mentioned. At that time I didn't

know what's so special about that, I would prefered

a real chicken instead.

It took me decades to realized it's beauty.
