Geocache Description:


"Harmony of Shapes" is a new sculpture in Fremont, executed by Kyoto Studios of Oakland and installed as part of the Washington Plaza renovation. The Washington Hospital annex nearby used to be an Emporium department store, and after it closed the building and parking lot went downhill. Come take a look now!

The sculpture has been there for awhile but it seems that only recently have they gotten the bugs out of the plumbing. It's right on the road to Niles Canyon, so it should be an easy stop and grab.

This cache is well suited to evening caching - the sculpture is lit and looks very nice after dark.

Note: The cache is not hidden in any plantings, on, in or near any equipment cabinets, or under any tanbark. Stay out of the water (unless it is hot and you want to cool off.)


The name of Washington Hospital echos the days when the Fremont area was unincorporated and commonly referred to as Washington Township. The name also appears on nearby Washington High School and Washington Blvd in Irvington, to name a few.

(TeamAlamo called tonight sounding forlorn, saying "There aren't any more caches for me to do. So this one's for him.)
