Remarks:
The sculpture, designed by Daniel Burnham, was originally installed on the facade of Union Station on 400 North High. The entire arcade, finished in 1897, is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. In 1976, when Union Station was demolished, concerned citizens banded together to save the arch. It was rebuilt at its current site by Cleveland Marble Company. Sensenbrenner Park was formerly known as Arch Park, and before then, Goodale Park.
