Technically, a concrete sperm whale painted blue was built for family use, and subsequently became part of an amusement park. The park is closed, but the whale is maintained by local supporters.

Hugh Davis built the Blue Whale in the early 1970s as a surprise anniversary gift to his wife Zelta, who collected whale figurines.[1] The Blue Whale and its pond became a favorite swimming hole for both locals and travelers along Route 66 alike.
