Despite what seems like endless rainy weather, construction on Peachtree Corners Veterans Monument is progressing. When complete the monument located within the city’s new Town Center, will feature a 2,500 square-foot plaza, seven sculptures, and a central pillar topped by an eagle atop the globe to represent the presence of the U.S. Armed Forces across the world. The sculptures represent each of the Armed Forces and Federal Military Reserve components.

Over 400 engraved pavers have been donated to date. Target date for completion and dedication of the monument is Feb. 15.
