Really beautiful memorial at the main entrance or Prospect Park, like a smaller version of Arc de Triomphe in Paris. The parks department used to open it up to the public once in a while, and you could climb inside to the top, but I am not sure that that happens anymore. I have heard that all major monuments in the US have barrels of crackers and water in them, but I am pretty sure that is an urban legend.

This is a good running/walking loop to do, approximately 1.5miles around. It is paved surface, so it is much easier on joints than regular concrete. The only reason I don't give it 5 stars is that during the week one is VERY isolated, especially during the fall and winter months--there is practically no one there. Stick to the weekends to do this loop, after sunrise and before sundown.
