Description
Spirit of Rockville fountain and statue, stands in front of the Old Red Brick Courthouse in downtown Rockville, MD. This area is known as Courthouse Square because of all the courthouses located in this area.
With the "Spirit of Rockville" statue as a landmark, many visitors to the town center use this area as a meeting place. Whether meeting for lunch or dinner, attending a movie or filing court papers, Courthouse Square Park is a primary meeting spot. Lawyers and business people stroll with shoppers during the day, and at night residents mingle with young people who have come to see a movie.
Held aloft in the hand of the Spirit of Rockville is a poem written by Richard Whitfield, a high school student from Rockville that reads:
As another day approaches,
I pray for my neighbors.
To live in freedom's light,
In peace with one another.
Though stumbling on occasion,
Unified, we endure
For We the People
Are the future;
We are Rockville.
