Hi! You can call me BuNTy! I joined Wikipedia on 2 September, 2014. Editing on Wikipedia happened by a freak incident as I chanced upon the edit this page tab at the top of the page. The concept sounded cool for me as I was getting the opportunity of adding content to improve any article's quality that I had the understanding of. The rest is for you to see.
The Dewey Arch was a triumphal arch in Madison Square, New York City. It was erected for a parade on September 30, 1899, in honor of Admiral George Dewey, to celebrate his victory at the Battle of Manila Bay in the Philippines the previous year. Constructed around two months before the parade, the arch was made of the plaster-based material staff, typically used in temporary buildings. After the parade, the arch began to deteriorate and it was demolished in 1900 after an attempt to raise money to rebuild it in stone was unsuccessful. The arch's larger sculptures were sent to Charleston, South Carolina, for an exhibit, after which they were either destroyed or lost.
