Octavius Valentine Catto Memorial, City Hall, Philadephia #114081782
Description

Pictured is a memorial to Octavius Valentine Catto outside City Hall, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Educator, scholar, writer, pioneering baseball player, and fearless civil rights activist, Catto fought unflaggingly for an equitable society in the wake of the Civil War. He was gunned down on South Street at age 32 by a band of marauding whites on municipal election day in 1871. The memorial consists of a 12-foot bronze statue of Catto. Behind him are five granite pillars, fashioned like upturned streetcars. The figure faces a stainless-steel ballot box resting on a broad table. Total cost for the sculpture and extensive site preparation and underground repairs is a little over $2 million.
