The memorial sits just offshore on a breakwater and is composed of a group of bronze statues of men who are attempting to survive after their ship was attacked by a German U-boat during World War II; it is based on a photograph taken of an actual event. The sculpture by Marisol Escobar captures an eerie realism as the waves pound the statues and on of the figures who clings on the side of the boat becomes submerged when the tide comes in. The men depicted here did not actually survive the incident. A bronze plaque onshore explains the memorial and its history and symbolism. ';

General Sherman graduated from West Point and rose to fame in the Civil War where he had a leading role in the defeat of the Confederacy. Sherman died in New York in 1891 and many of his friends in the Chamber of Commerce commissioned a statue of him for the city. Sherman’s figure on the horse is being led by an allegorical female figure representing peace; an African American woman from Georgia, Harriette Eugenia Anderson served as the model for the figure. At the feet of Sherman’s horse is a pine branch representing his march through Georgia. The sculpture rests on a large granite pedestal with three bronze wreaths on each side. ';

Harding spoke at the dedication of the statue at Bolivar Hill near West 83rd Street on April 19, 1921. In 1946 Sixth Avenue was renamed Avenue of the Americas and a new plaza was created where it meets Central Park; the statue was moved to the new plaza designed to honor Pan-American heroes and would be joined by additional monuments.

This part of the plaza was designed by Peter Wormser and Williams Fellows (architects) and writer/veteran Joseph Ferrandino. In 2001 extensive renovations enhanced the plaza with a new entrance and landscaping as well as more information. The plaza includes a walkway of granite pylons with bronze plaques containing the inscribed the names of all 1, 741 U.S. military personnel from New York City who are listed as killed in action, missing in action or prisoners of war from the conflict in Vietnam from 1957-1975. There is also a large flat steel map of Vietnam that includes sites of battles. The memorial plaza was dedicated on May 4, 1985 and then again on November 9, 2001 when it was redesigned. ';

var str = 'This massive equestrian statue of General George Washington sits atop a large granite base in Union Square Park and represents the moment New York City was liberated from the British at the end of the American Revolution November 25, 1783. The statue was commissioned in 1851 and sculpted by Henry Kirke Brown who helped develop a new American sculptural style. The representation of Washington combines some classical motifs with a sense of naturalness. Dedicated on July 4, 1856, the large statue originally resided in a traffic circle in the middle of the street on the southeast corner of Union Square. When the park was redesigned in 1929-30 the sculpture was moved to its present location in the south plaza opposite the statue of Abraham Lincoln on the north side of the park. The statue of Washington also became a site of a constant vigil and shrine by New Yorkers after the attacks of September 11, 2001.';
