Marker text: PRESIDENT MONROE'S LOCAL HOMES

In 1789 James Monroe moved to Charlottesville and for one year his home was located in the first block west of this site. Then he lived for nine years in the home he built on what is now called "Monroe Hill" at the University of Virginia. His final Albemarle home, near "Monticello" was his "Highland" estate, now called "Ash Lawn".
