This bronze bust of the former President, situated in a small brick plaza directly in front of Nashua City Hall, serves as a memorial to the late President. The memorial also commemorates Kennedy's first campaign stop which took place at this location in 1960. Due to the history and setting of this location, many presidential candidates have made campaign appearances in this plaza.
The inscription on the back of the granite base, taken from Kennedy's inaugural address, reads:
"Let the word go forth from this time and place, to friend and foe alike, that the torch has been passed to a new generation of Americans - born in this century, tempered by war, disciplined by a hard and bitter peace, proud of our ancient heritage."
