Additional Details:
A monolith memorial shaft to the memory of Oliver Hazard Perry stands on Crystal Point of Presque Isle State Park. From the monument there is a fine view of Presque Isle Bay, where Perry's ships were built and launched. His victory in the Battle of Lake Erie, September 12, 1813, destroyed British power on the Great Lakes.
