A small plaza at Clark Drive and Grandview Highway used to be home to a Christopher Columbus statue. But that was years ago.

News reports indicate that, this morning (September 9), East Van commuters noticed that another figure, known by such names as Satan, the Devil, and the Beast, had taken up residence there.

That's not all. This Satan statue bore an erect penis. OMG.

With all the fuss, city crews hastened to remove the statue. It was gone after 3 p.m., according to Global and CTV.

In the name of public art, is anyone going to mount a "Bring Back the Beast" campaign? This could be the new Devil Chilling Park.
