The Story of Freedom as told by the Veteran

Freedom is not free. For more than 200 years, whenever the freedoms upon which our nation was founded have been threatened, Americans have fought to defend them. Americans have always answered the call of their nation and paid whatever price was necessary to secure and guarantee our freedom. All have done their duty; many have paid the ultimate price.

Our land plan design firm, HOK, has published a wonderful story about the Park's design history. Access and download the story.
