Londoners refer to it as Eros, but the sculptor actually intended to be Eros brother Anteros. Thus my diatribe last night. :wave:

Took a few photos as I passed by today. They've really started distressing all the buildings, especially Leicester Square.
Thanks for taking the time to snap it. I appreciate it!
Thanks Gambit!
Look at the row of them... so sexy!

Wow, that embankment with the lampposts is really going to look more impressive than I thought. And I'm glad they're not keeping Leicester that bright red color that it was- that was a little too bright, hehe.
Oops... I misread your question. I thought you were asking if it was supposed to represent Eros. I see now that you were wondering if the dude with the bow and arrow had been placed atop the fountain. My bad and I apologize!
And you might as well call him Eros as everyone else does!

There are several great shots of the fountain and some up-close detail shots of the lamps:
Looks like one of the streetlamps got damaged in the fountain move
And Magistra, no the Eros/Anteros statue isn't there yet. I would guess it will be put in place after the body of the fountain is installed on the base.

Whoops, sorry about that! I guess I thought "streetlamp" would differentiate from the ones on the wall, which I would call...umm...okay, I see the confusion. My bad. lol
Yeah... probably one of the lifts.
BTW... did any of you notice that they installed the dolphin lamps before they painted the granite finish coat.
Honestly, these fixtures being installed before painting makes me wince.

And BTW. I believe Al Roker was on a plane this afternoon, because of a comment he posted on twitter regarding airline courtesy. Might he be in Orlando tomorrow morning? I have no idea...

Doesn't look like the Today Show will be at Uni tomorrow (Al Roker at least). Al is is scheduled to be at Churchill Down's (Kentucky Derby) tomorrow.

No. It was not in anyway a response to WWoHP. Did they take a few queues from it and improvise along he way (ex. specialty drink)? Sure. But in no way was this ever intended to be a response to Potter. It was simply meant to increase the capacity of the MK, which has been bursting at the seams in recent years.
