A public park, where scattered around the various gardens, grottos and copeses are bronze statues from fictional works. Here Chewbacca, there Sherlock Holmes, and around the corner a life-sized Smaug.

       Central Park, in New York, has statues of fictional characters from Carroll, Shakespeare, Anderson, and Perrault <link>. It'd be nice to see a park where *all* the statues were of fictional characters. [+] for life size Smaug (provided it shows the chink in his armor).

       You know, it would make my day to turn a corner and find myself in front of a life-sized Nyarlathotep.

       I read this as Friction Park - being a place where you can rub against various items.

       There's a hospital in my town that has a little park. There's a statue of Jesus in it, and a grotto with the Virgin Mary. It is very peaceful.

       Ha! ... I like the 'friciton park' idea, though it would attract many a freak.
