It's pretty amazing, the variety of sculptures on display on the 1000' long wall in front of this private mansion owned by Byung Taek Kim, Chairman of the Taekwondo Association of Greater New York.
Starting from the west side there is a replica of a galley ship complete with dragon. Below is the message PLEASE DRIVE CAREFULLY. Continuing on you will find the main gate guarded by knights on horseback, the aforementioned Jesus and Transformers and a large white Statue of Liberty above a message that says YOU ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR YOUR OWN CHILDREN. Then many dinosaurs appear above a sign that says GOD BLESS AMERICA. A second gate has knights in armor standing on either side, followed by a menagerie of elephants, above PLEASE DRIVE CAREFULLY again, giraffes, and even a sea serpent.
You can't park on the road but there are cutouts where you can pull over on the shoulder to get a closer look.
