"One of the most visible structures in Congress Park is the War Memorial overlooking the park's main pond. The memorial was dedicated in 1931, eight years after the end of World War I. Over the years, plaques have been added for other wars inside the columned structure.

In 1999, the city started a Veterans Walk of Honor leading up to the memorial. By selling bricks with veterans' names on them, the city has raised about $150,000, which goes into a special account for the memorial's upkeep."
