I've walked by this fence behind the First Presbyterian Church many, many times, but only just noticed this acorn final. It probably stood out because, earlier in the day, I'd come across an iron acorn on a fence at the Albany Rural Cemetery while looking for the grave of Dianna Mingo (a former slave and centenarian who lived kitty-corner from the future site of the First Presbyterian Church)
It's a rather pleasant detail to notice!

Pinson conveys in the "Public Eye: 175 Years of Sharing of New York photography. The
goal, he said, is to look at the history of photography through the
contemporary lens of social media.
