Toronto’s balls of concrete

(I just have to find the other one)
Perhaps one of TCL’s readers can tell me what this thing is? I’d guess either a fixed compass or solar clock.
It’s still cold and windy and I booked it over to warmth and coffee. On the lookout for ball #2.

Welcome to Toronto, Jacob!
Unfortunately, I have no idea what this sculpture is, but I’m sure that there’s a plaque somewhere that describes it. If you’re interested, take York Street all the way to the lake. Walk past the Second Cup at Pier 6 and head farther down the embankment; it’s on the left side. And if you do find out, please share :)

I was there on the weekend with my daughter. She busted her lip on the footpath there actually! No plaques anywhere which is a shame.
