Excerpt from A Record of the Dedication of the Monument on Dorchester Heights, South Boston: Built by the Commonwealth as a Memorial of the Evacuation of Boston, March 17, 1776, by the British Troops The monument is built of white marble. A plain shaft about sixty feet high rises from the platform at the summit of the hill, relieved only by a small balcony on each of the four sides. Above the main shaft the walls recede, forming a platform surrounded by a balustrade. This plat form commands an unequaled view of Boston, its harbor and the surrounding country. A second square shaft appears above the balustrade, and the whole is crowned by an octagonal lantern. The main shaft is eighteen feet four inches square, and the extreme height of the monument from the platform to the tip of the vane is about one hun dred and fifteen feet.
