Overlook of the Flower

Local nameMirador de la Flor
LocationCorpus Christi, Texas, United States

Mirador de la Flor is a monument in Corpus Christi, Texas, that honors Tejano musician Selena Quintanilla-Pérez, who was murdered on March 31, 1995 at age 23. About 30,000 people visit the monument every year, especially citizens of Corpus Christi and cities located in Texas. It is located a few miles north of Selena's burial site at Seaside Memorial Park, and features a life-sized bronze statue of the singer, sculpted by Corpus Christi native H.W. "Buddy" Tatum. Selena's statue leans against a concrete pillar, looking towards the Corpus Christi Bay.

The monument also features a motif of white roses, said to be Selena's favorite, and a memorial plaque facing Shoreline Boulevard. A 4-foot high stainless steel barrier was added in 2000 to protect the statue and pillar from graffiti.
