They've got it backwards - you PLANT a tree in someone's honor or memory. This stately tree is already there. Let it live. Maggie Walker would be horrified to know a tree was killed in her name. I don't object to both of them sharing the space.

The park area has been desolate would become a vital focus stimulating an area rich in potential.

Just sticking her statue in that tiny space is just silly! And destroying a magnificent old live oak criminal.

Situated at one of the major routes into Downtown it will be well seen.Closing off Brook road one of the oldest roads is thoughtless & unnecessary. That will only serve to further "redline" & cut off Jackson Ward from Broad St. Very bad idea. That is the bad part of our history & should not be repeated.

Mrs. Walker was an inspiration to all not just one race...time needs to be spent in addressing how best to educate further generations of her work..not at a bus stop where lingering to compliate her achievements is not possible.

The small Brook Rd. triangle itself gives all of us pleasure to view in the midst of so much asphalt and concrete and recounts our history as well!

School children will have access to not only her statue, but to her home, bank and all the historic places in the surrounding area. Place a marker on the Brook road triangle pointing the way.

People will see the statue only in passing. What a wasted opportunity! Move to the 4-acre park and give this wonderful woman her due.
