Monterey Square is on the line of crown jewels along Bull with Johnson Square, Wright, Chippewa, Madison and then Monterey. Each of these squares offer much in beauty and history. My decision was to focus on Congregation Mickve Israel that stands on the east side and faces Monterey. The glorious repetition of pointed arches and pinnacles to support a path to Higher Ground in gothic style spoke to me in the plan for all to be in the past and present. The warmth and smooth surface of the yellowed stone edged in white against the color of the blue violet night is supported by pink and green palms lit by the moon. May peace be soon.
