In Brooklyn’s historic Fort Greene Park, you’ll find this oft-overlooked monument standing tall at the center of the hill. Designed by legendary New York architecture firm McKim, Meade & White, the Prison Ship Martyrs Monument was dedicated by President Taft in 1908, commemorating the ultimate sacrifices of more than 11,000 patriots during the Revolutionary War. It’s open for outside views during daylight hours.
