Edward M. Kennedy Institute in Boston will feature a replica of his office

His mahogany desk on the Senate floor will remain there, his name inscribed in a drawer below his brother’s. His papers, spanning almost five decades of lawmaking, will go to the John F. Kennedy Library. And the treasured mementos from his office walls - family letters; his brother’s dog tags; Cape Cod seascapes he painted - will hang again, in a replica of the office on Boston’s Columbia Point, at the heart of the new Edward M. Kennedy Institute.
