Located at Manhattan’s Grand Army Plaza, Pulitzer Fountain was built in the year 1916. Inspired by the ones in Place de la Concorde, France, newspaper publisher Joseph Pulitzer funded the construction of this remarkable structure. It is designed by architect Thomas Hastings with the finely crafted sculpture standing on its top sculpted by sculptor Karl Bitter. It is by far one of the most amazing landmarks in New York City.
