    Art deco fountain surprise
    Happened to come across while trying to find parking in the downtown. very nicely maintained place where one can spend time with friends and family. Reason behind the fountain/statue is heartfelt. Parking right under the fountain is easy to access and close to main attractions. Parking cost can be little less.

    Impressive little known feature
    This impressive memorial monument fountain is in the mall area right behind Key Tower. It’s in a beautiful park and the monument is well maintained. I just don’t think anyone knows it’s there. It’s definitely not in the flats where Trip Advisor map shows it.

Right in front of our hotel is the Fountain Eternal Life sculpture from 1964. This art deco fountain is described as peace arising from the flames of war. It was dedicated to memorialize service members killed in World War II. It has since included those killed in Vietnam and oh the 20th century wars.

The Fountain of Eternal Life, a remarkable centerpiece of Memorial Plaza in downtown Cleveland, is surrounded by a picturesque setting of statues, monuments, and a mix of new and historic buildings - providing a stunning backdrop for memorable photos.

We found this beautiful little fountain park outside our hotel in downtown Cleveland. It was late at night and the lighting was perfect. I snapped a few photos to share, check them out.

This was a very nice tribute to Veterans. Parking is not great, its all street parking. There are some benches to sit.
