Highland Cemetery is a large cemetery on the northeast side of Lawton. It currently has over 20,000 burials. Paved drives bisect the cemetery in both directions. In the western half the drives lead to a center point with a circular concrete sidewalk encircling a very unique gazebo.
The gazebo almost has a Greek hanging gardens look to it. The platform is concrete, with three steps leading to it and four built in benches. There are openings to the gazebo on four of the eight sides. The roof is supported by large 18 inch diameter concrete columns which are stuccoed. The roof is flat and stuccoed on the under side. There are shrubs and trees planted around it.
