The Lone Sailor statue is located on the site of The Leahy Center for Lake Champlain, adjacent to ECHO, a lake aquarium and science center in Burlington. The Memorial commemorates Lake Champlain's significant naval history and honors all men and women who are serving and have served in the sea services. The US Navy Memorial Foundation approved Vermont's Burlington Waterfront as the second site outside the nation’s capital, and the first civilian site, to be awarded this honor (as a US Navy Memorial). The Memorial and Lone Sailor statue were made by Vermont granite company, Rock of Ages, crafters of the World War II Memorial in Washington DC.

Burlington, Vermont is the seventh city outside the nation's capital to have The Lone Sailor statue; the original statue is located on the U.S. Navy Memorial in Washington, DC.

Lake Champlain is also the site of two critical historic battles. Under the command of Commodore Benedict Arnold (then loyal to the patriots), the 1776 Battle of Valcour Island had a profound impact on the outcome of the Revolutionary War. During the War of 1812, the U.S. again defended Lake Champlain against invasion from Great Britain in the Battle of Plattsburg Bay.
