Verdi Square, Park in Upper West Side, Manhattan, US.
The square spans 0.1 acres on a trapezoidal traffic island between 72nd Street, 73rd Street, Broadway, and Amsterdam Avenue.
The area transformed from Bloomingdale Road in 1703 to Broadway in the 19th century, becoming officially named Verdi Square in 1921.
A granite monument from 1906 displays statues of Verdi and four characters from his operas, commemorating the Italian composer's musical legacy.
The park features walking paths, benches, and green spaces, with direct access to the 72nd Street subway station beneath.
The annual Verdi Square Festival presents free outdoor concerts each September, continuing a tradition that started in 2006.
