Behind our hotel (which looks a little like a Soviet compound but is apparently the only hotel right on the beach to be found between NYC and Atlantic City) there is a small monument called Seven Presidents Park. Over the years, seven presidents have visited Long Branch, NJ and there are six plaques commemorating each. James A. Garfield gets a whole statue because he died in Long Branch. He came to the shore to recover after being shot and died two months later.
