The Veteran’s Memorial Park, located along the Causeway connecting the cities of Muskegon and North Muskegon, was once named Michigan’s Most Beautiful Mile. Recent restoration projects have worked to not only restore the park to its original design, but to make it more resilient for native fish, wildlife and vegetation. It has been the task of the WMSRDC GIS technician to map the locations of the veteran’s memorial trees, walkway markers, monuments, benches and acknowledgements located throughout the park.

The map above allows you to search for walkway markers, tree markers, and monuments throughout the park. Make sure to toggle the search bar to either walkway markers or trees and monuments and type in a veteran’s last name to see the results and locations. You can also view pictures of the markers throughout the park.

If you have any questions about existing markers, you can contact WMSRDC’s GIS Department.
