About this site

Sir Donald Sangster was an advocate for democracy; as such, the monument dedicated to him at the National Heroes Park is open, one that allows viewers free access. The shafts rising and expanding depict his humble origin and his later expansive development. Each shaft is terminated in a manner to suggest his work was unfinished.

Designed by Mostyn F. Campbell and completed in 1968, the monument to the late former Prime Minister was declared by the Jamaica National Heritage Trust on the 7th of January 2000.
