Memorial alcove within the Māori Battalion Hall on the corner of Cuba and Pitt Streets. Inscribed on brass plates are the names of soldiers from the 28th Māori Battalion who died while serving overseas, with photographs of members surrounding the panels. Four carved wooden statues, each uniquely identifying A, B, C & D companies of the Battalion, lie in the foreground on either side of the alcove.
