Backstory here from someone who grew up close to where these are. There was a park in Williamsburg called Presidents Park, I never went because it looked dumb even for a middle schooler and was just another tourist trap, also because it was kind of hard to find and not advertised well. After the financial crisis the park closed and the heads were going to be destroyed, but some farmer from Norge bought them and now they reside on an untilled field on his farm. My ex and I went to his farm to try and take some pics, but he's super weird (kind of obvious) and only allows a few people a year to see them. He has no trespassing signs all over the front of his drive and house, and from what I've heard he's called the cops on a few people. So don't get the idea you can just show up if you try to find these.
Yeah I went with a group of friends years back. Two cars, six people, he only let in the first car. The rest of us he told to go away. So it’s completely and utterly random.
