restoring a public space

i cannot remember exactly when they moved this piece, "sabine women," from in front of 100 colony square, but it hasn't been that long ago --- it has been stuck off down by the side of the building where it was barely visible (which is a better fate than what's happened to a lot of contemporary stuff )--- now someone has had the good sense to have it reinstalled in front of the building --- dorothy would be proud

surely they will be removing those dreadful light fixtures shortly --- it's a shame they buggered up campanile the way they did, or dorothy's piece would have a better backdrop than it does now
and an image from c. 1970, with the piece in place in front of the building
