This park was the home to the statue entitled The Hiker and represents the type of American soldier in the Spanish-American War. The statue, originally designed to be shown in the rotunda of the New York State Building at the Jamestown Exposition, was unveiled on Memorial Day, 1914, by the United Spanish War Veterans, in memory of the soldiers, sailors and marines who lost their lives in the Spanish War.
