George Mason memorial is often overlooked. He was dedicated to the rights of man and evidently also pimptastic.

Nice memorial to sit and enjoy the garden . Completely empty and forgotten though that also means its idyllic and somewhat peaceful .

Scott H.'s tip from Nov. 2011 no longer applies. Monument has been cleaned up & garden has filled in.A great, quiet stop between Jefferson and FDR memorials. See it in summer.

This park had been clean up and maintained. The pool/fountain is currently drained for the winter. Still a quiet spot for reading and lunch .

The namesake of our home (George Mason University ), George Mason drafted the Virginia Declaration of Rights - the model for the Bill of Rights.

Watch for traffic on Saturday afternoon.

Really bad AT&T cell phone reception here for some reason

Trashed and unkept. So sad. Don't waste your time here.
