The Vietnam Wall of Southwest Florida in Veterans Park is located adjacent to Laishley Park in  Punta Gorda, Florida.  The wall is a half-scale replica of the original in Washington, D.C. The granite is from the same source as the original and details, such as the slope of the wall, follow the design of architect Maya Lin.

The Vietnam Wall of Southwest Florida in Veterans Park, Punta Gorda Florida, honors the 58,300 +  men and women who made the ultimate sacrifice.  An important purpose of the wall is to educate present and future generations about the Vietnam War’s history so that we do not repeat those turbulent times in the future.
