Reviews
"Very nice"
"Reminds me of the soldiers and sailors monument in the Boston common."
"Well maintained monuments in the center of Cambridge Commons and Harvard campuses. Several sites to appreciate on your stroll."
"The monument is a great landmark to use for people trying to find each other in Harvard Square. Its right in the middle of the Cambridge Commons. The commons itself is lovely any time of the year. Being a large space you can walk around on the paths or sit on the grass and maintain socially distanced walks and outings with friends. Nice for picnics, too (there are plenty of benches scattered around the park) and you may even run across a few folks making music."
"Civil war monument. Abraham Lincoln statue."
