Grounds for Sculture[1] is a unique and highly successful combination of indoor/outdoor sculpture museum and landscape art in Hamilton, NJ (halfway between Princeton, NJ and Trenton, NJ). This public park has been lovingly created over the derelict remains of the old state fairgrounds since around 2000(?). Physical art, water gardens, sculture, and landscape art are everywhere intricately interwoven to delightful and often surprising effect.

The main train line, carrying Amtrak and local NJ train traffic, gets a peek of what is to come by glimpsing several enormous sculptures which are stationed along the roadway approaching the museum and grounds. These oddities have a startling effect when viewed from the train (photo to come). They excite the interest of visitors as they approach Grounds for Sculture.
