A solemn bronze WWI “doughboy” holding a handful of wilted poppies stands in stark juxtaposition with the happy sights and sounds of the nearby dog park, playground, playing fields as well as the beautiful and tranquil perennial garden. The park was a perfect place to conclude my walk across 53rd Street.
