Q for I Am Mars: What memorial statue was on the site? I read The Alienist years ago, what a great book...
@Mick, "Peter Cooper" is engraved on the top of the monument but I can't make out the rest.
The one thing I recognize is that the old black and white shot depicts a much cooler and far more interesting city than the color view.
