Corner Book, Newfoundland: War Memorial

Corner Brook picked some prime real estate for its War Memorial, right in the heart of Remembrance Square at the intersection of two busy city streets. 

Two soldiers are part of the display - one for losses during World War I, and the other for the Canadian soldiers who died in Afghanistan. The caribou is a symbol for the First Battalion of the Royal Newfoundland Regiment that was chosen way back in 1914. 

The plaza is often during into something of an open-air market during the summer, complete with colorful decorations. It looked like it generates a good amount of pedestrian traffic.
