Review:
Monterey Square is located along Bull Street between Gordon and Taylor Streets, commonly considered to be one of the city's most picturesque town squares.
The square was originally laid out in 1847, meant to commemorate the previous year's Battle of Monterey, a seminal battle of the Mexican-American War. Nearly all of the square's original buildings remain, including the Mercer House, which was prominently featured in the 1994 novel Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil.
Several major motion pictures have used the square as a film setting, including the 1997 film adaptation of the iconic novel. Iconic park features include an 1853 statue honoring General Casimir Pulaski, while other noted square buildings include the Congregation Mckve Israel, one of America's few Gothic-style synagogues.
