Photo Hunt: Where in Troy Did I Find This?

Let's play a game. I took a photo in town Tuesday. You guess where I took it.

The beaver, known to many as the symbol of Troy, is well-regarded for several reasons. According to Animal Planet, their teeth and work ethic help the environment.

However, it's safe to say that beavers are not known for their pastel, multicolored coat. No, this is not a real beaver — it's a ceramic statue which was built by Deborah Kashtan in 2005 to commemorate the city's 50th anniversary.

Can you guess where I found our favorite large, nocturnal, semi-aquatic rodent in Troy? If so, tell us in the comments!
