A stroll down the roadway will bring you to the plaza and the Soldiers’ Monument, a 33-foot stone obelisk dedication. The inscription reads: “To the heroes who have fallen in various battles with … Indians in the territory of New Mexico.” In 1973, a blonde-haired protester chiselled off the word “savage.”
