An interesting monument commemorating John Barry. This is one of the many sites within the park and it is well worth exploring the entire park to see all of these interesting features.
i lost my glasses here and couldn't read the monument. hmph. i ve been stumbling around Boston for hours looking for them. I accidentally bumped into a gang of marauding teens who started beating me up while saying "no cap." i also need a band aid it's up to you. if you find my glasses, please let me know.... it would make me very happy.
Neat Memorial.
