Answer:

The statement that is a claim of fact is D) The Greystone monument has been located in the downtown square for over seventy years.

Explanation:

A claim of fact -also called fact claim- is a statement that describes how things used to be in the past, how they are in the present or how they will be in the future. Although they are called claims of fact, these statements are not a fact itself, but a claim to be one.

In this case, the description is based on the location of the monument.
