At the center of the circle is an area planted year-round with a colorful

array of perennials and seasonal flowers. At the south entrance to this
flowered circle is a commemorative plaque for Lt. Col. Joseph Grezaffi,
who was one of the founders of Freedom Plaza. On the east and west

sides of the circle are benches where one may enjoy the sunshine.

Immediately behind the plaque is a large flag pole that was erected by
The Retired Officers Corporation (ROC). Under the covered entryway
there are several benches and chairs for the use of residents to enjoy the
outdoors and wait for transportation.

Please obey the parking signs around the circle. There are individual golf

cart parking spaces designated by white lines. Make sure you park your
cart between the lines, and do not take parts of two spaces. On the oth-
er side of the main entrance, there is a space reserved for the USPS truck
during certain hours, which are noted on the sign. There are four resi-

dent parking spaces designated for 1 hour parking only and three parking
spaces for use by a resident with a handicap hang tag or a handicap li-
cense plate. All of these spaces are designed for short term use. Violators
will receive a note or a call from Front Desk parking monitors and be

asked to move their vehicles. Do not park automobiles in golf cart spaces.

Front Entrance (See Figure 3 page 5)

Among the first things one sees are the hotel style luggage carts. These
carts are for residents to use in transporting packages to and from their
apartments. They are to be returned as soon as possible after use.

On your right, behind the wall, is a small room where residents may store
walkers and scooters temporarily. A few wheelchairs are available. These

are for the temporary use of residents, please inform the Front Desk if
you need to use one. Local telephone directories are stored there while
supplies last. Fluorescent vests are available for your use while walking
after dark.

For your convenience shopping carts are stored in the small room on the

left for use and return. Free local newspapers are delivered here. The
automatic doors leading into the Atrium are locked at 10:00pm. There is
a bell on the window frame just outside these doors on the right so that
the Front Desk staff can admit those arriving after 10:00pm.
