The John Adams/John Adams memorial

This is the memorial that I posted about yesterday. It has a picture of John Adams and John Quincy Adams. The memorial reads "John Adams John Quincy Adams, Father and Son, Second and Sixth President of the Nation, Statesmen Diplomats Patriots Builders of our great republic, They labored in the vanguard of human democracy on this soil".

Right now the memorial is in Merrymount Park, but up to very recently this memorial was next to Black's Creek.

John Adams

This John Adams statue is found in Quincy Center, right in front of the city hall. Dedicated in 2001, this life-size bronze statue of the "Atlas of Independence" was designed by sculptor Lloyd Lillie. John is looking across the street, towards Abigail/John Quincy Adams statues.
