''The Drop'' is a steel sculpture resembling a raindrop by the group of German artists known as Inges Idee, located at Bon Voyage Plaza in the Coal Harbour neighborhood of downtown Vancouver. The tall piece is covered with Styrofoam and blue polyurethane. According to Inges Idee, the sculpture is "an homage to the power of nature" and represents "the relationship and outlook towards the water that surrounds us."

==Description and history==
According to the City of Vancouver Public Art Registry, ''The Drop'' is a blue tall sculpture depicting a "large, gentle 'raindrop' captured in its descent at the moment of contact".〔 The central "spine" of the sculpture is composed of steel and covered with Styrofoam and blue polyurethane.〔〔 The piece's color compliments the sky and contrasts with the large yellow sulfur piles visible on the opposite shoreline.〔
''The Drop'' was commissioned as part of the Vancouver Convention Centre Art Project and marked the first North American project for Inges Idee, a group of four German artists.〔〔 The sculpture was installed in 2009 at Bon Voyage Plaza (adjacent to the Vancouver Convention Centre) at the end of Burrard Street, along the waterfront in the Coal Harbour neighborhood of downtown Vancouver.〔 The piece was removed temporarily during the 2010 Winter Olympics for interrupting the view of the television cameras.
