Forty-nine limestone pavers are arranged in a circle at Lake Beauty Park on the Orlando Health campus, inscribed with the names of the 49 people killed in the attack at Pulse nightclub on June 12.
The hospital treated most of the shooting victims from the nightclub, just a few blocks down the road. The last of the injured was released from care just a few weeks ago.
“We hope the memorial garden will serve as a source of healing and remembrance for the families who lost loved ones, community members who have grieved for the innocent victims and offered support, and for the Orlando Health team members who provided care, comfort and support to patients, family members and each other during this difficult time,” said Matt Taylor, AICP, vice president, Asset Strategy, Orlando Health.
The pavers are arranged around the entryway fountain.
It was designed by the Orlando office of GAI Consultants.
