VFW Post 3063 submitted a letter of support for the proposed updates to the Memorial Wall at Memorial Stadium, advocating for much-needed improvements to honor veterans with a more accessible and dignified space. The renovation plan includes a dedicated area for reflection and events while improving the wall’s setting away from parking areas.
A briefing presentation shared with the Landmarks Preservation Board can be viewed here.
The board is set to vote on the proposal soon, and public comments are encouraged. To submit your input before the vote, visit here.
