History
The statue was dedicated outside the New York Tribune Building, just east of City Hall Park, on September 20, 1890.[2] The statue was ordered to be moved in 1915 because it projected from Tribune Building's lot line,[3] and because the building's ground-floor space behind the statue had been leased.[4] The statue was moved to City Hall Park on June 19, 1916.[5]
