The Avenue of Flags was initially established as part of the celebration of the United States' Bicentennial in 1976 at the request of a visitor. The 56 flags represent the 50 states, one district, three territories, and two commonwealths of the United States of America.
The flags are arranged in alphabetical order with the A’s on the walkway near the concession building and the W’s near the Grand View Terrace. The names of each state, district, commonwealth or territory are listed on the plaques directly below each flag.
