Mosaic Benches in Harlem

Wandering around Riverside Church earlier this spring, I came upon this wondrous mosaic bench ringing Grant's Tomb.

The vision of Cuban-American artist Pedro Silva, the benches were commissioned in 1972 by CITYarts and the National Park Service. They were handmade by artists and community volunteers. Read more here.

They could use some care and repair, yet nevertheless these benches inspire me. There is so much love and fun and playfulness in them. At the same time, they radiate an important, rich significance, representing a city's efforts decades ago to mend and unite its diverse communities.
