"The Franklin D. Roosevelt Memorial at W. 72nd St. in NYC is a poignant tribute to one of America's most iconic leaders. Nestled in Riverside Park, this memorial invites visitors to reflect on FDR's transformative presidency. The design seamlessly blends natural elements with artistic representations of FDR's legacy, creating a serene atmosphere for contemplation. The memorial's thoughtful layout guides visitors through FDR's four terms in office, capturing the nation's journey through the Great Depression and World War II. Sculptures and inscriptions provide insight into his leadership and compassion, while water features evoke a sense of tranquility. The attention to detail is evident in the meticulous craftsmanship of the artworks and the careful selection of quotes that adorn the walls. The combination of greenery, stone, and water fosters a sense of introspection, making it a peaceful escape from the bustling city. Overall, the Franklin D. Roosevelt Memorial stands as a testament to FDR's enduring impact on the nation. It's a must-visit for history enthusiasts, offering a unique blend of historical significance and natural beauty."

"Eleanor and I had a great chat. Somewhat one-sided, but fun none the less. She still has a lot to offer if you listen hard."
