MANHATTAN (WABC) — The sculpture of a giant pigeon at the High Line and its run as an art installation has a growing petition to keep right where it is.<\/p>\n

It already has more than 5,000 signatures on change.org<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The petition urges city officials to keep the sculpture called “Dinosaur” permanently perched.<\/p>\n

It’s been on display at Manhattan’s High Line elevated park for a year and a half and is scheduled to be taken down next month.<\/p>\n

“Dinosaur” is the fourth in High Line’s rotating arts program.<\/p>\n

The next piece set to replace it is a 27-foot-tall sandstone sculpture of Buddha<\/a>.<\/p>\n
