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.

Happy Memorial Day!

World War II memorial statue in Merrymount Park, Quincy, MA.

This statue was originally unveiled in front of city hall (Nov 11, 2002), then on December 6, 2005 was moved to its current location.

Many of the bricks around the statue are inscribed with names of those from Quincy that served in that war.
