The window is just above the front desk. It is by Alfred Godwin and Company, Philadelphia. It was dedicated in 1886.

 

Longfellow is opposite. The window depicts a sea-burial scene from Longfellow's poem Tegner's Drapa. This Tiffany window was designed by Theodore Russell Davis.

 

The Asbury Park Pubic Library with the corner turret and before the Ivy. The Grant window is at left on the Grand Avenue side. Turrets are marvelous things. I'd like to live in one.
