Located in the newly developed Seaport Square, The Massachusetts Fallen Heroes Memorial is attributed to the lives lost for our freedom since September 11, 2001. The 50-foot diaphanous obelisk monument has five sides, each representing the branches of the United States armed services. Sitting in a reflecting pool, the structure is illuminated from within during the evenings; a beacon of light against the night sky. Adjacent stands side-by-side glass plates with the names of the honored soldiers.
