(Continued from other side)
"Make no little plans. They have no magic to stir men's blood and probably themselves will not be realized. Make big plans; aim high in hope and work, remembering that a noble, logical diagram once recorded will never die, but long after we are gone will be a living thing, asserting itself with ever-growing insistency."
Daniel Burnham (1846-1912), Architect/City Planner
Erected 2003 by the City of Cleveland and City Planning Commission, the Cleveland Mall Plaza Beautification Fund, and the Ohio Historical Society. (Marker Number 72-18.)
