Really simple, fascinating example of many generations adding their own honors to George Washington to create a great, modest memorial that says as much about the man as the people.
Clean park with great scenery
Single grave marker for the thousands of soldiers buried in washington square who died during the revolutionary war. Its a moving tribute
Watch out for Leah, the ghost known to haunt this monument ...
