The UK Government introduced five unique design proposals for a memorial dedicated to Queen Elizabeth II, celebrating her 70-year reign and legacy. To be situated in St James's Park, the memorial reflects the significant impact the Queen had on the UK and the Commonwealth. The public can view and provide feedback on these designs via an online exhibition until May 2025. The final design will be announced in early Summer 2025, with the unveiling scheduled for 2026, coinciding with the Queen's centenary.
The proposal by Foster + Partners emphasizes a tranquil family of royal gardens, inspired by historical landscape design, and interconnected by a natural stone pathway.
Lord Janvrin highlighted the importance of public involvement in capturing Queen Elizabeth II's essence and memories for future generations through the memorial.
The memorial's location in St James's Park is strategic due to its proximity to Buckingham Palace and the historical connections to the Queen's legacy.
The winning memorial design will be selected by 2025, with public feedback playing a crucial role in shaping a tribute to the nation's longest-reigning monarch.
