In the meantime, Chicago's Benjamin Franklin

Joseph Medill, editor of the Chicago Tribune , presented Richard Henry Park's work to Lincoln Park in 1896. It is now located at the south end of Lincoln Park, facing north and the visible zoo, with "its back to LaSalle Drive." -- from Ira J. Bach's A Guide to Chicago's Public Sculpture, 1983.
