Park Avenue Medallions


Description

Embedded in the sidewalk around 101 Park Ave are a series of bronze reliefs that celebrate the rich architectural heritage of the commercial properties in the Grand Central Partnership district. At the site, once stood "The Architects` Building", home to many of the designers of the structures depicted in the plaques. This commemorative project seeks to re-establish the historic link. It was made possible through the leadership and generosity of HJ Kalikow and Co., and the Grand Central Partnership. The bronze reliefs are by Gregg LeFevre a sculptor from New York City, assisted by James Owens of Boston.
