New Haven Green — Flag Pole Memorial Honoring World War I

This 1928 flagpole situated on the center of the New Haven green honors residents lost in the First World War. A fountain, added in 2003, surrounds the flagpole. A bas-relief depiction of allegorical and military figures circle around the base of the flagpole.

This monument sits on the 16-acre New Haven Green, which was established in 1638 for the young colony; it provided a common grazing yard.
