Description

The pair of Guardian Eagles welcome visitors through the west entrance to Patriot Plaza. Both majestic and intimate, they stand guard over both the visitors and the graves across the road.

Their noble presence evokes the military's role as guardians of our democracy and vigilant defenders of our freedom. Seven feet tall at the head, cast bronze, and beautifully detailed, they are a monumental presence visible from afar, but designed to interact intimately with the people who enter through them.

The Guardian Eagles create an inspiring transient space into Patriot Plaza.
