Readers may remember Fearless Girl, the 50-inch-tall bronze statue of an intrepid young girl, placed in front of the famous Charging Bull sculpture in Lower Manhattan. The girl, New York City mayor Bill de Blasio recently announced, will be moved to a new location nearby—in front of the New York Stock Exchange.
The reason cited for the move is safety. Too many pedestrians are skipping across busy Broadway to have pictures taken with the girl. The bull may in time be removed to the Stock Exchange location as well, which is incidentally where its sculptor, Arturo Di Modica, originally deposited his work under cover of night in 1989.
