The sculpture "Frederick Douglass: In Remembrance" is owned by the Champaign Public Library and sits at the entrance to the Douglass Branch building at Douglass Park (501 E. Eureka St.). The Library quotes the sculptor, Preston Jackson, in describing the work as "an archway piece — it is a two-way door that symbolizes a gateway to both the past and the future."
