Check out a unique landmark that has grown over the years when you visit the Monument of States Statue, recently refurbished for Hampton Hotels' Save-A-Landmark Program. It was erected as a symbol of America's unity in 1941, following the attack on Pearl Harbor. The monument has taken shape over the years as leaders from around the world have donated stones. Today, this pyramid-shaped landmark stands 50-feet tall and, at its stoic peak, displays the Bald Eagle and the American flag. Hampton® Hotels helped to restore the monument by erecting a new American flag and repainting the statue.
