The "Tower of Aspiration," sculpted by Chicago artist Richard Hunt, stands in downtown Augusta's Springfield Village Park. The park is also home to the historic Springfield Baptist Church, visible in the background, which was constructed in 1897 and is home to the oldest African American congregation in the country.
