Mallory Square

It is located on the waterfront in Key West's historic Old Town, adjacent to the cruise ship port.

Adjacent to the square are the Key West Shipwreck Historeum Museum and the Old Post Office and Customshouse.

The decision was met with considerable opposition from people who felt it would disrupt the tradition of watching the sunset at Mallory Square.

There is a 20-foot (6.1 m) monument titled "The Wreckers" and 39 busts, honoring A. Maitland Adams, John Bartlum, Livingston W. Bethel, Jefferson B. Browne, Sandy Cornish, William Curry, Carlos M. DeCespedes, Nelson Francis de Sales English, Henry M. Flagler, Sister Louis Gabriel, Eduardo Gato, John Huling Geiger, Maria Gutsens, Dr. J. V.
