Miner statue to return to Franklin Square

A sign promises the return of the miner statue to Franklin Square in Houghton. Industrial Graphics created the substitute for the statue, which was damaged after being hit by a car in January. The temporary replacement is anchored with vandal-proof bolts and a 400-pound block of concrete, City Manager Eric Waara said Wednesday. Restoration work on the original statue is hoped to be finished by early summer, Waara said. (Daily Mining Gazette photo by Garrett Neese)
