Washington Square Arch Restoration

 

In 2002, during restoration of the famed Washington Square Arch at the foot of Fifth Avenue, the Association provided funding and research.  The Association identified and located the quarry that supplied the marble for the two statues of George Washington on the north side of the monument.  Discovery of the quarry allowed restoration specialists to use matching marble to replace lost or broken pieces of the statuary
