Summary from English Wikipedia (enwiki)

The Sphere (officially Große Kugelkaryatide N.Y., also known as Sphere at Plaza Fountain, WTC Sphere or Koenig Sphere) is a monumental cast bronze sculpture by German artist Fritz Koenig (1924–2017).

Summary from Español / Spanish Wikipedia (eswiki)

The Sphere (traducido literalmente como: «la esfera») es una escultura de metal construida por el escultor alemán Fritz Koenig, actualmente se encuentra ubicada en Liberty Park. Sin embargo, originalmente se encontraba en el centro del Austin Tobin Plaza como una fuente de agua, que a su vez era la zona central de las torres gemelas del World Trade Center en Manhattan. Luego de los atentados del 11 de septiembre de 2001, su localización era incierta, ya que había sido desmontada de su base y a pesar de que seguía intacta, fue ocultada por los escombros luego de que los aviones se estrellaron contra los rascacielos y estos colapsaron.
