I have ridden by this hundreds of times & never really knew it was there. I always thought it was a utility cover the city put there. It is right off of the Perry Creek Trail & right down the street from Albrecht's Cycle, the local bike shop.
This blog is about historical and cultural sites, places and events all over the world visited by bicycle or that could be visited by bicycle. It is to show that a motor vehicle does not always have to be used and it is often better to visit these places by bicycle.

Sioux City History & Culture by Bicycle Part 23: George C. Haddock Memorial Marker
This small, round metal marker was made in honor of a Methodist minister who was killed for his beliefs on prohibition. The marker is embedded into the concrete of a downtown city street approximately where Haddock was killed. This is at the corner of 4th and Water Streets, near Dalton’s Pub, a few feet out into the street from the sidewalk.
