Description

Bellingham's Memorial Park is a green wedge between King Street and I-5. The focus of the park is a memorial to Whatcom County Residents who lost their lives in six wars: the two World Wars, Korea, Vietnam, the Gulf War of the early '90s, and the Iraq War during the first decade of this century. The war if Afghanistan is not included. Each named war is represented by a polished granite sail arranged in a circle like blades of a turbine. People who lost their lives are named on each slab, and one names all six wars commemorated by the memorial. Benches for contemplation are reflected in the polished surfaces.
