Honoring the local men who "died to keep you living without fear"
According to a plaque in the yard, the Queens Reformed Church was completed in 1859, with the portico added in 1947.
Back in 2002, someone toppled this statue from its pedestal, breaking it into pieces. If you look closely, you can see the seams where it was put back together.
This must be a replica; the model year listed on the registration sticker is 1981.
I'm walking every street in New York City.
This is the counterpoint to my walk across the US. Instead of seeing a million places for just a minute each, I'm going to spend a million minutes exploring just one place. By the time I finish walking every block of every street in all five boroughs, I'll have traveled more than 8,000 miles on foot — all within a single city. Details!

Your donations allow me to keep walking full-time. If you think what I'm doing is valuable and you'd like to offer some support, I would be very grateful. On the other hand, if you think I'm a worthless bum, feel free to email me and tell me to get a job, bozo. Both are excellent options!
