Pieces of a massive sculpture were escorted on Wednesday, June 5th to Discovery Way and Village Parkway in Port St. Lucie. This 73-foot stainless steel heart sculpture, named "Heart in the Park," is designed by internationally acclaimed artist JEFRË and will be illuminated nightly with LED lights.
The sculpture, made up of eight pieces with one piece weighing over 50,000 pounds, is set to become a central landmark in Tradition.
The project, fully funded by Mattamy Homes as part of their required art contribution to the city, was approved by Port St. Lucie in 2022 with an estimated cost of $4.5 million.
"Heart in the Park" will be located adjacent to the 71,000-square-foot "Shoppes at the Heart Commercial Center," which will include an Aldi grocery store and various restaurants and businesses. The heart sculpture is expected to be fully installed by fall and open to the public by spring 2025, making it the world's tallest heart sculpture.
