The Haddock Memorial Tablet has been temporarily removed from its location of being embedded in the street near the intersection of 4th and Water Streets near the western of downtown Sioux City, Iowa. Currently it is on temporary display at the Sioux City Public Museum. It will be returned to the area near its former location.

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.

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.
