| Stand and listen to the birds |

| Where law defended |

| Between two arms extended |

| Below the bar that binds |

| Beside the long palm's shadow |

| Embedded in the sand |

| White house close at hand. |

Added information and emphasis on Washington Square Park and Alexander Holley Monument location to Verse. Added Manhattan coastline and islands to Image.

Updated picture. Discovered that a rod iron fence was in place behind monument, likely during 1981 and 1982. Changed "Bar that binds" to mean the fence instead of the monument.

More information gathered. Holley Monument was moved during 1970 park renovation. Area paved around monument base. Byron Preiss may have buried casque by going through the asphalt or a gap between the monument and the asphalt. Pretty impressive. Did he replace any asphalt he removed?

Removed my version of the solution. The solution did match forum consensus and was likely creating confusion. Left page blank for a verified solution in the future.
