Roosevelt Memorial

The Roosevelt Memorial is a memorial to former American president Franklin Roosevelt. The memorial occupies around 7.5 acres and symbolises Roosevelt’s time as president through four “rooms”, each representing a term of Roosevelt’s presidency. Noting Roosevelt’s disability (he was unable to walk from around 1921 onwards), the memorial was designed to be easily accessible to everyone, including the physically impaired.
