Archive restoration in progress

New York City Statues

An independent archive of statues, monuments, memorials, and public sculpture across New York City. This site is being restored entry by entry, preserving original URLs and rebuilding content with clear location context and practical notes for visitors.

Newly published entries

As the archive expands, additional statue pages are added alongside restored legacy entries.

The original structure of NewYorkCityStatues.com centered on individual statue entries. As the rebuild continues, pages will appear under their historic slugs while thematic and geographic indexes are layered back in gradually.

About this project

This archive focuses on what matters most for each entry: where the statue is located, how to find it on foot, what you are looking at, and how it fits into the surrounding NYC streetscape.

As entries are restored, related pages will reconnect into a natural statue-to-statue network, recreating the feel of the original site while improving clarity and structure.
