"Beautiful monument and memorial to the residents of Riverside who fought in World War II. Located right off of the East Bay Bike Path in Riverside Square, there are many shops and places to get food nearby. A nice place to sit outside and get a breath of fresh air, have a picnic, or take some pictures."
