The city maintains an excellent online catalog of the more than 1,000 monuments to be found in city parks.

The just-as excellent Web site forgotten-ny.com has several sections running down the statues of Manhattan.

Dianne Durante, author of the somewhat esoteric “Outdoor Monuments of Manhattan,” maintains an excellent Web site of her essays and other musings on what she calls representational art.

There are 97 busts in the Hall of Fame of Great Americans at Bronx Community College. Because there is already an excellent online tour of the hall, those memorials get only a passing mention here.

The Smithsonian American Art Museum supports an amazing online inventory of sculptures across the country.

Today's Web site is devoted to Christopher Columbus memorials, of which New York has five. Or 11, if you believe the keeper of this page.

We won't, though. As he includes in his total many that are inside buildings or on facades, and he also lists a subway platform mosaic of one of Columbus's ships.

This page is part of a larger Web site devoted to Columbus memorials in general, which is interesting and which represents quite an impressive effort. It includes a dizzying inventory of memorials around the world. The creator of the site is someone named Peter van der Krogt.
