A towering sculpture of screen icon Marilyn Monroe called "Forever Marilyn" that spent almost two years in the city is back permanently. Designed by Seward Johnson, the sculpture itself is a 26-foot-tall, stainless steel and aluminum likeness that captures Marilyn in that famously billowing white dress as she stands over a subway grate in the movie The Seven Year Itch. Created in 2011, the statue has been displayed in a variety of locations in the United States, as well as in Australia.
