This benchmark is embedded in the cement foundation of the pedestrian bridge across Broadway/Hiway 63. It is in the west entrance to the bridge on the opposite side from Golden Hill School.

There is a pink "do not disturb the geodetic survey marker" sign a foot away. I've hidden a munzee in the sign post.
