Statue of Red Auerbach, Bronze statue at Quincy Market in Boston, United States.
The Statue of Red Auerbach depicts the coach seated on a bronze bench in the heart of Faneuil Hall Marketplace. He appears relaxed, holding a cigar and papers, captured as if taking a moment during a game.
Artist Lloyd Lillie created this bronze figure, which was unveiled in 1985 at Faneuil Hall Marketplace. The installation was erected during a time when Boston wanted to honor the coach's remarkable achievements.
The statue honors a legendary basketball coach whose teams became part of Boston's identity. Visitors often stop here to remember the era when this city dominated the sport.
The statue sits in a well-traveled area of the marketplace where foot traffic is steady throughout the day. It is easy to locate and provides seating where visitors can pause and take photos.
What makes this installation special is that visitors can actually sit on the same bench as the figure. This closeness creates an unusual connection between viewer and subject.
