In Iron Mountain, Michigan, Sandstone Terrace rooftop bar shares an alley with First National Bank and Trust. And hanging over the alley: a sky art installation. In the summer of 2023, the installation consisted of a rainbow assortment of umbrellas. In June 2024, the umbrellas were replaced by rotating miniature hot air balloons. “It’s been a big draw for people to sit along the edge and take their group photos with the hot air balloons in the back,” said Brandy Wentz, the manager of Sandstone Terrace.
