Sam Houston Statue and Visitor Center
Modern Monument · Huntsville, Texas
A sixty-seven-foot white statue of Sam Houston standing beside Interstate 45 at Huntsville, visible from six miles away and generally described as the tallest statue of an American hero anywhere. It was finished in 1994, it is free, and it is the most arresting thing on the drive between Houston and Dallas by a considerable margin.
