This little piggy went to the market ...

U. Village has five new residents. Five pig statues were placed in the complex this past weekend as part of the kickoff of Pigs on Parade 2001, a public art exhibit that will place more than 200 fiberglass pigs along sidewalks and in plazas throughout the city of Seattle. The statues -- identical to Rachel, the bronze pig in Pike Place Market -- were decorated by local artists. They will be on display through September.
