The main contractor for the Prison Ship Martyrs' Monument was PJ Carlin and the subcontractor who supplied the granite and erected it was John Hynes who had stoneyards at 3rd Ave and 3rd St. and Union and Bond streets in Brooklyn. There is a souvenir journal in existence as well as the ceremonial program. This monument will be 100 years old in 2008 and there are some efforts to refurbish the monument and surrounding area for the centennial.Ahynes432 01:10, 13 September 2007 (UTC)
