We stopped by to see the statue. If you go to the back of the statue there's a plaque with the statue of liberty sitting with her arms outstretched.

I’m glad I paused to take a look at the statue. A very interesting bit of history and definitely worth stopping to admire it.

You probably recognize George Washington. But who are those other guys? That is the mystery surrounding the Heald Square Monument, a bronze sculpture group by Lorado Taft. Located at East Upper Wacker Drive at Wabash Avenue, next to the Chicago River, on the city's Riverwalk, in the Michigan-Wacker Historic District of Chicago's Loop community area, the square is named for Captain Nathan Heald, who was commander of Fort Dearborn from 1810 to 1812. The sculpture, which was completed by Taft's associates following his death in 1936, depicts General George Washington and the two principal financiers of the American Revolution, Robert Morris and Haym Salomon. It was designated a Chicago landmark in 1971. With the impending peril of World War II, Chicago searched for American patriots who represented them and could serve as the city's democratic role models. They discovered the heroes they were looking for in Washington, Morris and Salomon. Taft, a renowned sculptor, was commissioned to design the monument. He was passionate about the project because of his American Revolutionary ancestors. He gave the monument a profound but straightforward design: the three bronze patriots holding hands in patriotic unity atop a large rectangular stone base. Engraved on the front of the base are the patriots' names and a powerful quote from Washington condemning bigotry and offering protection to all citizens who stand by the American government. The back of the base has a bronze plaque with an image celebrating America's tolerance of ethnic diversity. After five years of fundraising and sculpting, the monument was dedicated on December 15, 1941, the 150th anniversary of the Bill of Rights.

There are a handful of monuments along E Wacker Dr and the Wabash Ave Bridge crossing of the Chicago River including the Heald Square Monument featuring General and first U.S. President George Washington, flanked by Robert Morris and Haym Saloman, the two principle financiers of the American Revolution. The statue is the work of sculptors Lorado Taft and Leonard Crunelle and was inaugurated in 1941. In addition to seeing the three standing patriots, it is worth looking at the relief of the seated Lady Liberty on the back of the monument. Lastly, there is a small fountain pool and some stone seating behind the Heald Square Monument if you want to take rest here.

This statue is General George Washington, and the two principal financers of the American Revolution, Robert Morris and Haym Salomon. Around the back is a beautiful carving of the statue of liberty welcoming the huddled masses that eventually made our country the great nation it is today. The only reason I know about that is doing a quick Google search to understand what I was looking at. It seems like the statue was randomly placed without much regard for it's historical significance
