I have lived in this area since 2015, but only discovered this memorial accidentally on a recent visit for a show at Tribeca Performing Arts Center. My husband and I had arrived to the area early, so we decided to just walk around and explore. Both of us being of some Irish descent, we were very interested in taking this in! I actually think I would like to return and spend more time reading all there is to read on the walls! When we were there, it was the end of March. It was hard to tell if the vegetation on the hill leading to the top of the memorial was meant to look sort of poorly managed or if it was a transitional time of the year. I would be interested to go back when things are in full bloom and see if there has been any change there. It looked like a good space to have a lovely garden, but that was not the case at the time. Being that it is an Irish hunger memorial, I thought there was a possibility that appearance was intentional.
