Monument Restoration
The World War I Victory Memorial Flagpole and Monument
This war monument was erected in Anderson Circle, next to the Plaza, in 1923.
The disintegrating decorative masonry needs to be restored and the base of the monument stabilized.
The decorative iron base to the flagpole needs to be removed and the footing of the flagpole reviewed for rust and possibly repaired and re-stabilized.
The flagpole at Anderson Circle may fall victim to a hard wind, especially one of hurrican force, if its base is as deteriorated as we suspect.
But that cannot be determined without an expensive dismantling of the decorative ironwork encasing it.
Both of these images are of the base of the World War I Victory Flagpole and Monument.
