There used to be a slaughter house at apx 40th st and 11th avenue, up until the 1980's. The cornice had wonderful heads of rams, and cows and sheep on it. When the building was torn down, the heads disappeared. I came upon this cow head from the building recently, along with several of his fellow bovine, in storage crates on the bike path of Hudson River Park. I always make it a point to check on him when I go by; I do hope there are plans to save him and his buddies.
