There are two famous polar bears in nashville at the corner of Edgehill and 12th.. Around 2005, those two were the subject of a lot of city talk when the owners put them for sale and the city bought the local "treasures" and put them at that streetcorner. There were originally 4 of them, dating back to an old Ice cream parlor that used them as part of their store decoration. This one, which hasn't been painted lately is in Germantown in the yard of the house next door to Monell's. I do not know the whereabouts of #4.
