James J. and Helen Storrow Memorial, Bronze memorial at Charles River Esplanade in Boston, United States.
The granite platform supports a bronze sculpture displaying an engraved map of Boston along the Charles River waterfront location.
James Storrow initiated the Charles River Dam construction in 1901, transforming the tidal estuary into a controlled freshwater basin.
The memorial represents the Storrow family's dedication to creating public recreational spaces that enhance the urban environment of Boston.
The memorial stands near the Hatch Shell, accessible from David Mugar Way and the Fairfield Footbridge entrance points.
Helen Storrow donated one million dollars after her husband's death to develop the Esplanade, leading to additional city funding.
