The hat is back | Waterfront Park's Abraham Lincoln statue complete again
June 7, 2024
LOUISVILLE, Ky. — With a last-minute sanding and a twist of the screws and bolts, a young Abraham Lincoln was reunited with his iconic top hat. The bronze top hat was stolen in December 2023. It’s the first case of vandalism since Hamilton finished the sculpture 15 years ago and installed it at Waterfront Park. The sculpture is based off a moment in Lincoln’s life that he said, “tormented him.” The original hat has not been recovered; its replacement cost $17,000 which was mostly covered by insurance. Waterfront Park paid the $5,000 deductible Story with video. https://www.whas11.com/article/features/...9d83ae9e97 |
