One thing that I looked for in New York City were legacies of Theodore Roosevelt, the very complex man born in New York City who went on to be American president, among other things. There were plenty.

"Theodore Roosevelt Way" apparently designates the block of East 20th Street between Park Avenue South and Broadway, the block home to Roosevelt's birth home.

I came too late in the day to see Roosevelt's reconstructed birthplace.

The Equestrian Statue of Theodore Roosevelt in front of the American Museum of Natural History is imposing.

The Theodore Roosevelt Park, located next to the American Museum of Natural History in the Upper West Side, is pleasantly green.
