Answer
Yes, there are monuments in America dedicated to Giovanni da Verrazzano. Two prominent ones are the Verrazzano Bridge and the Verrazzano Monument. The bridge spans the Narrows, connecting Brooklyn and Staten Island. It is named after the explorer who anchored his ships at the harbor entrance in 1524. The Verrazzano Monument, erected in Battery Park, commemorates the 400th anniversary of his voyage to America.
