Description

This landscaped patch of land sits in the middle of a busy street. Because it is a benchless spot with no wooden seats, the concrete base of the statue of Ulysses S. Grant on horseback serves as the area's only seating. Some who have passed the memorial note that its location can make it feel somewhat obscured, though the low ledge offers enough room for a small group to sit and watch the neighborhood traffic.
