I've been there too. I thought that it was fabulous how they had everything set up. I really liked how they had his brother's memorial set up. Even though it was for JFK, I still liked his brother's memorial the same or almost as much as his.

The waterfall thing looks really nice. I want to visit there sometime. I've only been to D.C. once but thats really nice. What else do they have there?
I really like how they set it up and how much effort they put in to remembering FDR. The photos are really cool and I hope to visit the memorial some day soon. I haven’t been to DC yet but I have cousins out there so may when I go to visit them I will go and see the memorial and may his brothers.

I went there a couple years ago and really liked how they laid all of the statues out so you could easily walk through. I really liked the waterfall, because it gave some character to the exibit and not just all statues. The fact that they also went into his personal life was good, it showed his true character, like the statue with his dog, I liked that one.

Just looking at the pictures of the FDR Memorial, makes me personally want to go and visit their someday. It looks like a very well put together memorial that shows things not alone relating to his personal life but to his presidency. My favorite one is the waterfalls because I love waterfalls and it looks like it adds a nice touch. I’ve never been to DC and it’s something that I would like to do in the near future, along with visiting the FDR Memorial.
