This statue of Lincoln is located at the intersection of the Lincoln Highway and the west branch of the Dixie Highway. This intersection is often call the "Crossroads of the Nation." The statue depicts Lincoln receiving flowers from two young girls and is one of the few statues of him where he is depicted as smiling. In most statues his face is stern.
