Backstory and Context
Text-to-speech Audio
Veterans’ Memorial Park, located on the southwest side, is the only city operated veterans’ memorial in Madison. The national flag, POW/MIA flag, and flags of our branches of service fly over a blue reflective glass pool. The memorial also includes a pergola and plaza, seating, and a walkway featuring personalized bricks with the names of veterans.
In addition to the veterans’ memorial, the park also features trails for walking and biking, a playground, and tennis and basketball courts. It is a wonderful place to honor our veterans and enjoy the freedom that they served to protect.
