Washington Square Park

A Preview

"That arch. White marble, seventy-seven feet tall, modeled after the Arch of Titus in Rome. Stanford White designed it — the most famous architect in New York, a man who will come up again later for reasons that have nothing to do with architecture. It started as a temporary wooden arch for the centennial of Washington's inauguration."
