This statue sits in a small city park across from the St. Francis of Assisi church on Clark Street. there is a plaque on the base of the statue that reads:
This monument honors Christopher Columbus, our first immigrant
And all our immigrant parents and grandparents who by their
prayers, hard work, and perserverance, fashioned a great nation
out of a vast wilderness. God grant that we imitate their virtues,
especially love of God and love of country.
