The north end of Hancock Avenue is densely packed with monuments. A scene of heaving fighting on July 2nd and again on July 3rd during Pickett's Charge, it includes Gen. Meade's Headquarters and equestrian statue.

 

With the closing of the old Cyclorama and the uncertan fate of its building, it is an area in transition.
