‘Freestanding sculpture wall’ could be coming to Pershing Park for WWI Memorial

Architectural groups like The Cultural Landscape Foundation (TCLF) say the memorial must not destroy the character of Pershing Park as envisioned by Friedberg, including its “visual and spatial relationships.” In a recent blog post, TCLF said the freestanding sculpture wall could obstruct sight lines between park’s upper and lower terraces and discourage visitors from going behind the wall, “where they would be isolated and most often in shadows.”
