WASHINGTON, DC - View from inside the Washington Monument's viewing champing, looking west towards the Lincoln Memorial and Arlington VA. Towering 554 feet above the National Mall in Washington DC, the Washington Monument commemorates George Washington, the first president of the United States. After a decades-long construction project, it was completed in 1884. It was shaped as an Egyptian-style obelisk, and its thick marble walls encase an elevator and long spiral staircase that provides access to small chambers at the top. Fifty American flags ring its base.
