How many different kinds of landmarks can you find in one neighborhood? Landmarks in a neighborhood act as an “anchor”. Just like how an anchor on a ship holds that ship in place and keeps it from drifting away, neighborhood landmarks are designed to serve a purpose, whether it’s a school, a hospital, a library, a police station or even just a sculpture or statue.
