Franklin Delano Roosevelt Memorial
The Franklin Delano Roosevelt Memorial is dedicated to the memory of the 32nd President of the United States, and to the era he represents. It is the second of two that have been constructed in Washington to commemorate that president. The first, located on the National Mall, was dedicated in 1965, just a year after FDR's death. The second memorial, which opened in 1997, is located on the waterfront of the Tidal Basin, near where Roosevelt's beloved pet dog Fala often played. The memorial consists of a series of sculptures and water features spread over 7.5 acres. It includes four "rooms", each representing a different phase of Roosevelt's Presidency: The New Deal Room, The War Room, The Four Freedoms Room, and The Life Room. Each room contains sculptures and carvings that depict scenes from FDR's life and Presidency. In addition, there are quotes from Roosevelt inscribed on walls throughout the memorial. Visitors can learn about FDR's policies and accomplishments, as well as get a sense of the man himself through these various elements.

Adirondack Park
Adirondack Park spans over six million acres, making it the largest state park in the U.S. Unlike most state parks, about 52 percent of the land is privately owned inholdings. This breathtaking expanse boasts more than 10,000 lakes, 30,000 miles of rivers and streams, an estimated 200,000 acres of old-growth forests, and rugged mountains, including the iconic Adirondack High Peaks. The area is the historic home of the the Haudenosaunee Confederacy, also known as the Iroquois Confederacy, which consisted of several Native American nations, including the Mohawk, Oneida, Onondaga, Cayuga, Seneca, and Tuscarora. A haven for outdoor enthusiasts, the park offers endless opportunities for hiking, camping, boating, and wildlife observation. Part of New York’s Forest Preserve, which was designated a National Historic Landmark in 1963, the park also has a rich cultural heritage, with charming Adirondack-style architecture and small towns dotting the landscape.
