I have yet to see the Pushkin statue.........


Pushkin Statue
The first U.S. memorial to Russian poet and writer Alexander Pushkin was erected at The George Washington University in September 2000. “This statue will serve as a great inspiration to our students who are drawn to the elegance, wit and lightness of Pushkin’s language and the accessibility of his imagery,” former GW President Stephen Joel Trachtenberg said when the memorial was installed. The statue is found at 22nd and H streets, NW.
Tempietto (“Little Temple”)
A classical structure in Kogan Plaza, the Tempietto adds an aesthetic touch to a busy GW location. Students use the Tempietto as a gathering spot in the center of campus.
