Duke Ellington Circle is a traffic circle located at the Northeast corner of Central Park at the foot of Fifth Avenue and of 110th Street in the New York City borough of Manhattan. The traffic circle is named for the legendary jazz musician Duke Ellington. __NOTOC__ ==Plaza== Formerly named "Frawley Circle", the traffic circle was renamed "Duke Ellington Circle" in 1995.〔()〕 In 1997, a tall statue by sculptor Robert Graham, depicting the Muses — nine nude caryatids — supporting a grand piano and Duke Ellington on their heads〔(Duke Ellington Memorial Dedicated in Harlem ), artnet. Accessed September 16, 2007.〕 was erected in the middle of the shallow amphitheater composing the circle. Though the circle diverts the flow of 110th street, Fifth Avenue maintains a direct route through the intersection. A new main location for the Museum for African Art designed by Robert A.M. Stern is scheduled to open at the circle in 2011 and will be the first addition to New York City's Museum Mile in decades.
