About

Memorial Park

Memorial Park is a historic park located in the Riverside neighborhood of Jacksonville, along the St. Johns River. It was designed by the Olmsted Brothers to honor the 1,200 Floridians who died in World War I. The park features the iconic 'Life' sculpture, a bronze statue depicting a winged figure rising from a globe. Its open lawn and riverfront promenade make it a serene location for picnics and contemplation.
