CARY, N.C. — A massive piece of artwork that sparked debate in Cary is moving.

A crew this week began preparing the 11- foot tall ceramic sculpture known as "The Meeting Place" for a quarter-mile move from where it sits at the intersection of South Academy Street and Dry Avenue to a location at Kildaire Farm Road and Pleasants Avenue.

Town leaders received plenty of complaints saying the $40,000 fire sculpture was an expensive eyesore.

The move is expected to cost about $25,000.
