About This Memorial

The War Memorial in West New York, NJ, was constructed in 1937 as a Works Progress Administration WPA project to honor the 26 local residents who lost their lives in World War I. The triangular monument features thirteen steps on each side, symbolizing the fallen soldiers. Located on J.F. Kennedy Blvd., it was built primarily by war veterans, with 90% of the laborers being veterans themselves. The memorial serves as a civic tribute to the sacrifices made during the war.
