Hey Boston People!

I know, I'm posting like a madman tonight, but this has something to do with the story I'm currently writing. I seem to have forgotten a bit of geography and I need help. In particular, I'm thinking of that hill in Boston Common, the one that overlooks the big field/parking garage area to the west and the frog pond to the north. I know there's a statue on top of it, but I can't seem to remember what it was. Does anyone know offhand? Wikipedia sez it's the Civil War monument, but I'm skeptical.

Thanks! :)

Yes, I believe that's it. I seem to remember it was tiered, so that's probably it. Thanks! :)

And I'm finding it funny that the first person I hear from on this lives in NORTH CAROLINA. :p

But spent 1989-1993 and 1994-2003 in Medford. :)

Which part? The side that pronounces it "Med-fid" or the side that pronounces it "Meh-fudd"? :p

Right next to Route 93, "Meh-fudd". :)
