It was commissioned as part of the Community Redevelopment Agency's One Percent for the Arts, Public Arts Program, and was a gift from members of the Adams families, in memory of their forebearers, Morgan Adams, Sr., James H. Adams and movie director King Vidor (grandfather of Morgans Adams Jr.'s children). IAS files contain an undated press release from the YMCA of Metropolitan Los Angeles.
