Altab Ali Park

[6] At the entrance to the park is an arch created by David Petersen, developed as a memorial to Altab Ali and other victims of racist attacks.

The arch incorporates a complex Bengali and European style pattern, meant to show the merging of different cultures in East London.

[7][8][9] Along the path down the centre of the park are letters spelling out "The shade of my tree is offered to those who come and go fleetingly", a fragment of a poem by Bengali poet Rabindranath Tagore, which is no longer there.

The Shaheed Minar, which commemorates the Bengali Language Movement, stands in the southwest corner of Altab Ali Park.

[11] The nearest London Underground station is Aldgate East on the District and Hammersmith & City lines.
