The Lehman Gates were donated by Governor and Mrs. Herbert H. Lehman in honor of their 50th wedding anniversary upon the opening of the Tisch Children's Zoo in 1961. Designed by Paul Manship, the sculptor of one of the more elaborate gates at the Wildlife Conservation Center in the Bronx (the Bronx Zoo), the animals, birds, and boys are interwoven in a fanciful scrolling lintel.
