Garment Man in New York City Garment District3D Model
This is a permanent sculpture located at 555 Seventh Avenue (also known as Fashion Avenue) between 39th and 40th Streets in midtown Manhattan. The 8-foot bronze sculpture called “The Garment Worker” was created by JUDITH WELLER. It depicts a man (thought to be her grandfather) sitting at a sewing machine sewing a garment. The piece is a tribute to the history of the area as Manhattan’s Garment District or Fashion District.
New York first assumed its role as the center of the nation’s garment industry by producing clothes for slaves working on Southern plantations. It was more efficient for their masters to buy clothes from producers in New York than to have the slaves spend time and labor making the clothing themselves.
