The Phase Two Bricks Are In 

Thank you all for continuing support of the Seattle Statue of Liberty Plaza with the purchase of the 2nd phase of your inscribed bricks.  The bricks were put in during June, 2009, and the continuation of the original design is really beautiful. "Thanks" again to the crew of the Seattle Dept. of Parks and Recreation for their excellent job.  

We have information about the addition of the Phase 2 bricks in our new Newsletter. You can get a copy by emailing libby@carrbiz.com with a note to send a copy of the newsletter, as well as more information on getting a TRIBUTE PLAQUE, though they are now going quickly. See below.

Brick Location Indexes

If you wish to locate your brick, you will find it in one of our two indexes. If you purchased your brick prior to Sept. 6, 2008, please see the mapClick Here (Phase 1). If you purchased a brick AFTER Sept. 6, 2008 (Phase 2), then you should Click Here (Phase 2).  In either case, your brick can be located by its INSCRIPTION, using the first letter of the first line of the inscription.

Time Capsule

The long-awaited Time Capsule components have been chosen, and the capsule will be put in the plaza in the near future. Though the date is not yet set, so stay tuned. We will have a celebration of this event, and we will announce it in a newsletter prior to the event. If you do not get our newsletter, you may get on our list by emailing libby@carrbiz.com.

Tribute Plaques

There are only six Tribute Plaques left to sell as of June 30, 2009. The price is still $2,000. The Seattle Statue of Liberty Plaza Project can no longer offer them on a tax-deductible basis.  We are working on a solution for this problem. Please call Libby Carr, 206-938-8721, for further information.

Again, thank you, everyone, and particularly our committee, and the crew at Seattle Parks and Recreation. This project has been a continuing reminder that we can do anything when we all share a common vision.

Bless you all,

Paul and Libby Carr, Co-Chairs,

Catch the Larger Vision:

As many people know, the Boy Scouts of America put up the original “Little Sisters of Liberty”, including ours, in 1952. There were once 200 of them in 39 states and 4 American territories. See the larger story at http://troop101.thescouts.com/liberty/ to learn more about this original effort. Unfortunately, only about 100 now remain.

For more information on this plaza project itself, email us at libby@carrbiz.com, or call Paul or Libby Carr at 206-938-8721.

And a few pictures we love of the the first celebration:
