1. The American

   The American is a 217 ft bronze statue of a Native American, originally proposed to be built at Holmes Peak near Tulsa, Oklahoma, USA, by sculptor Shan Gray. Holmes Peak, located in southeastern Osage County some 7 miles northwest of downtown Tulsa, is the highest point in the immediate region with an altitude of 1030 ft. It is within the grounds of the Centennial Botanical Garden. According to the proposal, The American, designed in the image of an American Indian brave with a bald eagle on his shoulder, will rise 60 ft taller than the Statue of Liberty, and will be the largest bronze statue in the world with an interior observation deck. The eagle will have an 82 ft wingspan. Gray, who is Osage, and has built a career on large-scale sculptures of Oklahoman sports figures such as New York Yankees pitcher Allie "Superchief" Reynolds and Heisman trophy winner Billy Vessels, conceived The American as an entry for a contest to design a statue for the dome of the Oklahoma State Capitol, which was added to the building in 2001. Initially intended for the outskirts of Oklahoma City, the Tulsa location was selected after investor disinterest. The design was enlarged for the landmark Holmes Peak site and for visitor access, and will include a visitor center and other amenities and underground access to the statue, rather than directly at the base, to preserve the natural setting.
