Description
Though you cannot walk through the center—the interior is cordoned off with shrubs—the space functions as a leafy border where benches line the exterior. From these seats, you can peer in at the tall monument of Dante Alighieri, which features a description of his life, or look out toward the Metropolitan Opera House. It is a well-maintained spot to drink coffee, eat lunch, or meet up in Lincoln Square.
