Description
The 76-foot Columbus Column monument is at the center of the Columbus Circle and just east of the AOL Time Warner Center towers. It was created by Italian sculptor Gaetano Russo, consists of a 14-foot marble statue of Columbus atop a 27.5-foot granite rostral column on a four-stepped granite pedestal.] The column is decorated with bronze reliefs representing Columbus' ships: the Niña, the Pinta, and the Santa María, although actually they are Roman galleys instead of caravels.
