NEW YQRK. Dec. L
ton broRiz* statue of Commodore
Cornelius Vanderbilt -h’ i-JMinx
cleansed of the soot and grime of
6C years in preparation for a trip
uptown. Since 1868 it has spr- '
mounted the fre'ght station of She
Hudson P4ver railroad down below
Canal street. Now tt is to occupy '
a niche in the south wall of the
Grand Central Terminal. ' r
The statue is all that is left of -
a 180-foot fries* which was tty\
work of art New York bragged,
about in the days before the < /
dess of Liberty lifted her tnrcl
in the haibor. It wa« executed by .
Albert Degroot noted sculptor of
the time, and was placed across
the top of the new freight depot
the year Commodore Vanderbilt
become president of the New York
Central. , _ <
The goddess of plenty rested on
her shield at one side of the frieze,
and Neptune reclined at the ettu-r
extremity. Between them freight
trains plied the forests, fields and
prairies, and side-wheel itenmers
plowed the ocean waves. IP the
center stood the city, .symbolic of
NCw York, as a background fvt
the image of Commodore Vsnd-r-
bilt. all bundled up in a fur-col-
lared winter coat.
LAST OF THE OUTRIDERS
In the lat* seventies this was a r.
noble and mammoth piece < ql ,1
sculpture, and townspeople made
periodic pUgrinMMia acron St,, ,
John’s Park, on which the freight ,
depot fared, to marvel at it and to ,
remark tn awod tones .hat it had
ctot half a million dollars. b
Today the freight depot is lost
Ifi j maze of warehouses vhtcli. |
have taken possession of the vldn- i
ity. St. .John’s Park is no longed
listed in the directories and guide ,
bocks The frieze has been torn, j
clown, and all cf it , but the statue
has been sold to junk drelers
The freight depot is still used,
and' some of the tracks that lead
to it run through the city streets
just cs they did in the seventies.
Along these, outriders on horse-
back, still gallop ahead of switch
engines waving red flags to warn
pedestrians and motorists to lock
out for the ears. But this pictur-
esque remnant of ether days is
soon to be obliterated, ton for a
new traffic plan will remove the
last of the railroed tracks from
New York’s public thoroughfares.
