Local residents, veterans, elected officials, families and friends gathered outside the Levittown Library on Saturday for a dedication ceremony of the new Veterans' Memorial. The memorial was constructed in front of the library since the location has been the home of a monument erected by the Levittown - Island Trees Veteran's Council for many years.
