The Constitution Gardens in Washington DC is a 50 acre park on the west end of the National Mall. It is near the Vietnam Veterans Memorial and located on Constitution Avenue.

The Gardens were dedicated in May of 1976 as a living legacy American Revolution Bicentennial tribute. In July of 1982, the 56 Signers of the Declaration of Independence Memorial was dedicated on a small island in the pond.

On September 17, 1986, in honor of the Bicentennial of the U.S. Constitution, President Ronald Reagan issued a proclamation making Constitution Gardens a living legacy tribute to the Constitution. Visitors enjoy the park all year as the home for a wide array of urban wildlife including ducks and geese.
