Plummer Park

Plummer Park

Plummer Park is a park in West Hollywood, California, on the eastern side of the city. The east side of West Hollywood is dominated by Russian immigrants, and the park is a popular gathering place for Russians. In 2005, a controversial monument to Soviet Army dead in World War II was built in the park. While supported by many local residents, it was criticized as being inappropriate given that some might interpret it as honoring the USSR under Joseph Stalin.

Note: the pictured monument in the park honors victims of Babij Yar Massacre, not Soviet Army.

The park is located on Santa Monica Boulevard, between Fairfax Avenue and La Brea Avenue.
