Embarcadero (SF)BART contracted metal sculptor, Robert Ellison, a local Northern California artist to build an artistic bike locker cage to draw attention to BART's new bike security space. Called "Spin" as a tongue and cheek reference to spinning gears and wheels of a bike, it was installed in January of 2002. Painted in various shades of gold, Ellison chose to highlight, magnify and overlap bikes and bike parts to catch bicyclists eye.
