is one of the many unique cultural components integrated into the
Riverwalk. Riverwall, consists of 550 photographic images (each 8" x
9.5") of the Hillsborough River. The images are fired on steel plates in
porcelain enamel and was created by artist Bruce Marsh.

Cenotaph and Ceremonial Space |
 |
American Indians throughout the Western Hemisphere have a unique and
rightful connection to place. The cenotaph and Ceremonial Space at
Cotanchobee (where the big water meets the land) at the mouth of the
historic Hillsborough River at Tampa, marks such a place. Ceremonial
Space marks a time of peace and reconciliation with the land as an
indigenous place. The term cenotaph was chosen for this site because it
is not a site of mourning, or a gravesite; there are no human remains
here. This installation marks historic collateral damage and new
beginnings. For additional information on the cenotaph and Ceremonial
Space,
