The sculpture of a Bengal Tiger was created by Brace Thompson in 2009. In 2011, it was entered into the Park Hill Orchard's annual Art at the Orchard exhibition where it won the People's Choice Award as best sculpture. It was subsequently acquired by the Galaxy Lounge where it now is on permanent display.

The life-size steel sculpture depicts a Bengal Tiger in the act of walking with its right front and left front legs forward. According to the artist:

"This tiger represents the power and beauty that our nature holds. Nature can destroy us with it's natural disasters yet it also brings us peace and enjoyment. Global climate change continues to accelerate as we discard natures importance, and our need for our co-existence."
