A new sculpture honoring New Haven’s Italian American community is one step closer to coming to Wooster Square now that the Elicker Administration has formally submitted plans to the Board of Alders for a public artwork to replace the long-gone Christopher Columbus statue.
That Wooster Square sculpture proposal was listed as a so-called “communication” on the agenda for Monday night’s full Board of Alders meeting. That means that the legislative item will next head to an aldermanic committee for a public hearing and review before returning to the full Board of Alders for further discussion and a potential final vote.
