GARGOYLE
Here's a fun fact. A gargoyle, technically speaking, is a decorative drainage spout to channel water off of buildings. If it's not a drainage feature, but sculpture on the corner of a building it's actually a grotesque. Now that's a thing you know.
This one is a bit of both. It's a reproduction of a grotesque from the Pyramid of Quetzalcoatl in Teotihuacan, México just outside of CDMX. This one, however, does have a drainage spout, so it is indeed a gargoyle.
