The Martin Luther King, Jr. Memorial stands in West Potomac Park alongside the National Mall as a dedicated national monument.

The memorial occupies grounds in West Potomac Park adjacent to the National Mall, establishing a prominent civic space outside the central line of presidential monuments. Its primary feature is the Stone of Hope, a pale granite sculpture portraying civil rights leader Martin Luther King Jr. Sculptor Lei Yixin carved the likeness directly from the stone blocks to emerge from an open portal behind the plaza.
