In the shadow of St. John the Divine in Morningside Heights sits a lovely little pocket park called "The Garden of Animals." In the center of the park is a massive sculpture called the Peace Fountain - depicting the sun, moon, and a variety of animals. It's meant to represent the battle of good and evil -- fitting for it's location next to the church!
It could have been to easy to walk by and just take in the larger Peace Fountain from the street, but I am so glad I went in and got the whole experience!
