Columbus Circle is named after Christopher Columbus! The City of New York made it a project for the 400th anniversary of Columbus's voyage, hiring traffic planners, architects, and artists to design the circle. In the middle is a column with a statue of Christopher Columbus, created by Italian sculptor Gaetano Russo. Thousands of Italian-Americans raised money to pay for this tribute to their countryman. Over the years, New York has grown and changed around the circle, but it is just as beautiful as ever.
In about 986, Bjarni Herjólfsson, Leif Ericson and Þórfinnr Karlsefni from Greenland reached North America and attempted to settle the land they called Vinland. They created a small settlement on the northern peninsula of present-day Newfoundland, near L'Anse aux Meadows. Conflict with indigenous peoples and lack of support from Greenland brought the Viking colony to an end within a few years. The archaeological remains are now a UN World Heritage Site.
