Grand Army Plaza
Grand Army Plaza in Brooklyn is an 11-acre oval plaza that forms
the main entrance to Prospect Park. It was designed by Frederick
Law Olmsted and Calvert Vaux in 1867. It consists of concentric
rings arranged as streets, with the outer ring being named Plaza
Street. Originally known as Prospect Park Plaza, but renamed
in 1926, it is perhaps best known for the Soldiers' and Sailors'
Memorial Arch, Brooklyn’s version of the Arc de Triomphe. It
is also the site of the Bailey Fountain and a monument to John
F. Kennedy, as well as statues of Civil War generals.
