Beloved bronze statues at Fig Garden Village may be ruined after being painted

FRESNO, Calif (FOX26) — The bronze statues that have stood for years at Fig Garden Village in Fresno may be ruined after they were painted black.

The on-site property manager told us that the statues had been painted green a long time ago, and were looking bad, so they were repainted along with all the benches and rails.

The property is located at Shaw and Palm Avenues in Fresno.
