Northwood Gratitude and Honor Memorial

Northwood Gratitude and Honor Memorial, Military memorial in Northwood Community Park, Irvine, United States.

The Northwood Gratitude and Honor Memorial is a monument in Irvine featuring five granite pedestals inscribed with names of military personnel. The structure stands in a community park setting designed for public access and contemplation.

In 2003 Irvine resident Asher Milgrom set up thirty wooden posts with names and photos of the fallen after hearing of about thirty soldiers' deaths. Residents maintained this temporary memorial each year from Memorial Day to early July, and in December 2009 the City Council approved a permanent version. It was dedicated on November 14, 2010, with 5,714 names.

Each year from 2003 to 2010 residents raised a temporary version around the park's original sign, holding public ceremonies on Memorial Day, July 5, September 11 and Veterans Day, plus nightly candlelight vigils through June and early July. The permanent memorial, dedicated on November 14, 2010, keeps that calendar of gatherings at the same spot in Northwood Community Park.

The memorial is located at 4531 Bryan Avenue and features wheelchair accessibility for all visitors. It remains open year-round without requiring advance reservations or scheduled entry times.

The inscriptions are continuously updated to document every name of American service members lost in both conflicts. This ongoing maintenance makes the site function as a living record rather than a static memorial.
