John Marshall Park is a park located in the Judiciary Square neighborhood of Washington, D.C. The park is in honor of John Marshall, a U.S. Representative (1799-1800), Secretary of State (1800-1801), and the fourth Chief Justice of the Supreme Court (1801–1835). A cast of the sculpture Chief Justice John Marshall, sculpted by William Wetmore Story in 1883, is situated on the north end of the park. Playing chess was \a favorite pastime\ of Marshall. The sculpture The Chess Players is located on the east side of the park.

The John Marshall Park is a great place to sit down and have lunch with a friend. We were there for the March for Our Lives rally, what a great experience for my family and me!

John Marshall Park is a spacious public park in Judiciary Square just off Pennsylvania Avenue next to the Canadian Embassy and the courthouse. It's named after the longest-serving chief justice, John Marshall, and there's a statue at the top of the park in honor of him. Nearby is another statue of two men playing chess, John Marshall's favorite game. There are plenty of benches making it a quiet place to enjoy lunch or a rest from site seeing.

The one saving grace is the salon. The new salon is nice and the staff is great with the girls. The old salon was stuffed into the basement and felt less a focal point. However, in the scheme of things, I don't think it was a good enough trade off. We visited to buy a present for our granddaughters... what an amazing shop and what dreams are made of for doll lovers!! The choice of dolls and accessories is plentiful, pricey with the aud exchange rate but irresistible special gifts!! Staff were available for advice and assistance! The store is a marvel in instead and even has a cafe!

The John Marshall Memorial Park is a small stretch of green space on Penn Ave. between 4th and 5th street. It is a quiet place near NGA and Newseum to grab a seat if you need a rest from sightseeing. A neat attraction you can see here is the seated and robed statue of Chief Justice John Marshall. This is a recast of the original which is located at the Supreme Court. There are also two bronze figures seated and playing chess, an apparent favourite hobby for Marshall.
