Went for a nice walk up to the Chalet, I noticed this relief model of the Mountain and surrounding area near the Statue. When did this pop up? I don't recall seeing it before. It's cool.

I just realized the arrow probably points to "you are here"... but if you are here, the mountain is actually to your right as you would be facing roughly South if you're normal to the arrow.

Or am I misremembering its orientation?

@HugeNerd there are a few of them, at different entrances to the park.

Since when? I honestly don't remember seeing this, or any other one. Judging by the base it's been there for at least a year?

Where's the little red dot indicating where you are?

Edit: Oh it's an arrow on the right. Needs some color on it.

@HugeNerd there are 12 of them at various entrances to the park. They were installed as part of the 375th anniversary of the city in 2017.juliemargot.com/projet.php?lng

A red dot wouldn't help the blind

How about a raised red dot?

Love when there is an xkcd that isnโ€™t one of the 10 main referenced ones!
