In Belfast, north of downtown Belfast, is this grouping of engraved bricks by the Veterans Memorial Bridge.
The bricks are located south of that bridge, which crosses the mouth of the Passagassaweag River. There is a small lot at the corner of Pierce Street and Water Street.
The letters on the bricks are shallowly engraved and painted black. Most are names of people remembered. Some are messages by people to others. And some are just messages. Though they are by the Armistice/Veterans Memorial Bridge, the bricks are not limited to veterans and family.
There is a sign, located at the corner where the harbworwalk starts. The web site is given there. Bricks currently go for $100 and are used in improving downtown Belfast.

The number of engraved bricks is a rough estimation.
