Location of memorial: Main St., ballpark bleacher, Rhineland
This ball park sits where the original town sat before 1993. Why this street is called "Main St." and is short and only goes by the ballpark. The Great Flood of 1993 wiped out the town, rebuilt where the train tracks use to sit, and residences up on top of the hill, the town recovered.
The ball park built where the town was to continue use of the site, and these bleachers dedicated to a native son
