Arizona - But It's a Dry Heat!



Wesley Bolin Memorial Plaza1700 West Washington Street, (at the corner of 17th Avenue), Phoenix, AZ

Downtown Phoenix is home to this tribute to lost veterans of several wars including World Wars, Korean Conflict, Vietnam and the more recent Desert Storm. Encompassing two square blocks, adjacent to the State Capitol Museum, this park features monuments to those lost; the anchor from the USS Arizona, lost at Pearl Harbor and statues of Arizona contributors such as Franklin D. Roosevelt for his work with the Civilian Conservation Corps. Frequently utilized for festivals including Fabulous Phoenix 4th, this no-fee park is also a hot-spot for political gatherings.
