Love the idea of Grover Cleveland sitting on a bench. I used to live in Milton, Delaware where a park had the figure of poet John Milton sitting on a bench. He was usually fitted with a proper topper for different seasons. Fun!

Many posts have recalled statues in different states. I just want to remind neighbors that there are something like 14 wonderful statues at National Harbor, including one of FDR in his wheelchair, one of President Eisenhower in his military uniform, one of Winston Churchill, one of five* military personnel representing five branches of the military (“Team America”) — and even one of Rosie the Riveter. *(We had five military branches before Space Force became our sixth.)
I personally love the idea of a Grover Cleveland statue on the Cleveland Park promenade, and if a search is made for an artist, I hope the search committee can visit “Spirit Park” at National Harbor to admire the statues we have there. In fact, with or without a search, I recommend a visit. Fun!

Dear Friends and Neighbors,
Why not expand on [the] idea and have Grover Cleveland sitting on one end of a park bench? Great photo opps for everyone: Zoo traffic. Birthday party guests, local politicians, prom dates, brides & grooms. The groom could bring a top hat as a prop to be photographed in.
