Originally named Leo Astor and Leo Lenox for the patrons of the New York Public Library, these lions were renamed by Mayor LaGuardia in 1930 for the virtues New Yorkers would need to survive the depression. There is nothing depressing about this noble pair.

The Statue of Liberty, an icon of New York, liberty, and America, is well worth a visit via Circle Line boat from Castle Clinton.

A wonderful installation of stainless steel trees appeared in Madison Square Park through December 31, 2007. Roxy Paine is handled by James Cohan.

This temporary installation of Anish Kapoor's Sky Mirror, a Public Art Fund Project in Rockefeller Center, was wonderful. This one's gone, but be sure and catch the others when they are available. Don't miss the Calders in City Hall Park or the Roxy Paine in Madison Square Park.

Built in the Art Deco style in the 1930s, Rockefeller Center is beautifully adorned with sculptures.
