Generations of children grew up on these statues from parks across New York City.

"Our parks bring so much joy to kids every single day. Millions of kids across New York City, and these sculptures represent that," Donahue said.

"They would tell of their ears getting pulled and people jumping off of them," Donahue said."I'm sure some of these, they had names and kids came and visited them every day. And they were like old friends." No longer objects, but living embodiments of childhood joy. A testament to power of imagination. Now weathered by time and the loving touch of countless hands. They carry the weight of countless memories.
