A memorial sculpture of former Auckland City mayor, Sir Dove-Myer (Robbie) Robinson is in Aotea Square next to the steps leading down from Queen Street. The bronze statue is life size, and was commissioned in 2002, the 100th anniversary of his birth. The sculpture celebrates the extraordinary contribution Robbie made to the city. The sculptor is Aucklander Toby Twiss.
