"Civic Virtue" is by far the best sculpture in the neighborhood; it's a shame it's being taken away.
Made in the Bronx, Exiled From Manhattan and Queens, Statue Will Head to Brooklyn - NYTimes.com: The statue, known rudely as “Fat Boy” or “Rough Boy,” is about to become the best traveled public monument in city history, moving from the Bronx (where it was carved) to Manhattan (1922 to 1941) to Queens (1941 until the present) to Brooklyn, where it is to settle indefinitely in Green-Wood Cemetery.
