The child being carried by the angel is representative of hope for future generations. It was dedicated as a September 11th memorial on the one year anniversary of the attacks. Originally the sculpture was planned to be an angel with a sword, but it evolved into this more tranquil, and gentle work of art with flowing lines. As the years have passed, the sculpture has since taken on new energy and life as a welcoming peaceful segue for the Monon trail south of Broad Ripple, and enhancing the Monon / Keystone Neighborhood corridor of the Monon Trail. It is located between 49th and 52nd Street. It has become part of the Monon Trail experience for thousands of trail users.
