Not long after a statue of Green Arrow was built in Vancouver for The CW's Arrow, a petition was launched to keep it in place. Unfortunately, there's a pretty valid reason the statue can't stay, according to Arrow co-creator Marc Guggenheim."I dearly love and appreciate this. But the statue was only built for two nights’ worth of shooting," Guggenheim said in response to the petition. "It wasn’t built to withstand the harsh weather of Vancouver, I’m afraid."
