This has nothing to do with the hunt, "A Famous Grandson". It is just a fun little puzzle/poem I put together while working on something else. I thought I would post it to see if anyone wanted to try to solve it.
We are in a league of our own
Our expressions like stone
We have been described as grotesque
And never been called statuesque
We’ve been cut many times
But have committed no crimes
We’re in a city that’s new
That the end of your clues
What am I? Where am I?

I'll take a guess at it...
gargoyles? NYC?

It is gargoyles, but your location is incorrect. Very close, though!

Goldhunter had the closest answer.
An important hint is in the first line.

Engr101! You are correct! Aren't the gargoyles at Yale cool? I was going to make a puzzle/painting about them, but I thought it was a little too easy. So I decided to post the poem here and see if anyone could solve just the poem portion alone.

Razorback, your answer fit the poem as well. I had Yale in mind, but I suppose the clues in the poem were vague enough that Columbia University in New York could also be considered a correct answer as well!
