This celebrates the first discovery of a complete set of dinosaur bones. There are a total of 702 engraved bricks. There are seven "sections" of pavers. The first section contains 102 and the remaining six contain one hundred each. I do not know if it was planned that way or just coincidence.
From the beginning of the statue and fountain to the end of the walkway is a total of one hundred ninety-one feet long and twenty-five feet wide. Each section is composed of ten percent (in some cases less) of donor pavers.
There are eleven sponsored benches which haphazardly line the edges of the walkway. There are dedication plaques on each, some of which are the "in memory of" variety. Additionally, in the middle of the walkway, evenly spaced, are 4 street lamps, one of which is broken.
The post coordinates are for the middle of the walkway. The default picture was taken at the end of "Haddy's Walk". If you look at the end you can see the dinosaur statue and Kings Highway. The other long view shot was taken standing next to the Hadrosaurus statue and looking down to the end.
