More information on Hall of Fame for Great Americans
Located at the Bronx Community College, this national landmark, The Hall of Fame for Great Americans, was founded in 1900 by Cornelius McCracken, the president of New York University, to celebrate Americans who have made a profound impact on American History. A breathtaking 630-foot open-air Colonnade designed by Stanford White houses bronze busts of the 102 Hall of Fame honorees, and overlooks the Harlem River. The honorees include a huge range of trailblazers from authors and architects to statesmen and explorers, such as Alexander Graham Bell and Eli Whitney.
