File National American Indian Memorial 1.jpg thumb Detail of drawing from cover of the groundbreaking ceremony s program The National American Indian Memorial was a proposed monument to Native Americans in the United States American Indians to be erected on a bluff overlooking the Narrows , the main entrance to New York Harbor . The major part of the memorial was to be a convert 165 ft m adj mid tall statue of a representative American Indian warrior atop a substantial foundation building housing a museum of native cultures, similar in scale to the Statue of Liberty several miles to the north. Ground was broken to begin construction in 1913 but the project was never completed and no physical trace remains today. Location The memorial was to be erected on the site of Fort Tompkins on Staten Island , New York , United States . Fort Tompkins, a component of the larger Fort Wadsworth , is located on a bluff high above the west side of the Narrows. It was and still is owned by the federal government. For many years Fort Wadsworth, along with Fort Hamilton on the east shore of the Narrows, provided harbor defense for New York City . Virtually all ocean going ships destined for New York pass the site, so the monument would have been highly visible to visitors, seen well before the Statue of Liberty would come into view. History The project was the brainchild of Rodman Wanamaker , scion of the Wanamaker s Wanamaker department store family, and Doctor Joseph Kossuth Dixon , head of the retail chain s education department. In 1909 Wanamaker proposed the privately funded memorial at a banquet in New York attended by Buffalo Bill Cody among others. On December 8, 1911, Congress set aside the federal land needed for the project but did not otherwise provide for any expenses. Sculptor Daniel Chester French and architect Thomas Hastings architect Thomas Hastings , both already well known at the time, came up with a general concept and sketch of the memorial, which included the statue ... more details
