Sculpture around NYC

Frommer's website has info about free outdoor sculpture viewing in and around New York City.

Besides obvious scupltures such as the Statue of Liberty:
There are whimsical, lifelike ones such as Taxi! by J. Seward Johnson (Park Ave. at 47th St.) and Commuters by George Segal (Port Authority Bus Terminal, 42nd St. & 8th Ave.). Kids get a kick out of Alice in Wonderland by Jose de Creeft (Central Park, Conservatory Water, near E. 72nd St.), Cat by Fernando Brotero (Park Ave. at 79th St.), and, of course, the Lions by Edward Clark Potter (New York Public Library, Fifth Ave. at 42nd St.)
And for art outside Manhattan they suggest the Noguchi Museum & Garden (picture above).
