It is located in Stiles Circle Park, near the University of Oklahoma Health Sciences Center, the Oklahoma School of Science and Mathematics, and the Oklahoma Department of Commerce headquarters.[1] The monument is visible from Interstate 235 and downtown Oklahoma City. Stiles Circle Park is maintained by the City of Oklahoma City's Parks and Recreation Department. A shaft of green or white light can project directly up into the sky from the monument. The beam strength is purported to be 1 billion candle power, with the ability to extend up to 5,498 feet; however that claim has been questioned. The light symbolizes the healing nature of the nearby health center.[2][3] References1. ^{{cite news |last=Phillips |first=Mary |date=22 Jun 2010 |title=Oklahoma City's Beacon of Hope sits in Stiles Park; named for oft-forgotten state pioneer |url=http://newsok.com/article/3470137 |newspaper=The Oklahoman |location=Oklahoma City, OK |access-date=3 Sep 2016 }} {{public-art-stub}}{{Oklahoma-struct-stub}}2. ^{{cite news |last=Killackey |first=Jim |date=3 Nov 2005 |title=Giving the green light to city's Beacon of Hope |url=http://newsok.com/article/2918301 |work=The Oklahoman |location=Oklahoma City, OK |access-date=4 Nov 2017 }} 3. ^{{cite web |url=http://foundersplaza.blogspot.com/?_sm_au_=iZVq36JQLfJMR07s |title=Founders' Plaza at Stiles Park |author= |date= |website=foundersplaza.blogspot |publisher=Oklahoma Health Center Foundation |access-date=3 Sep 2016 |quote=}} 1 : Monumental columns in the United States |
