There was Lincoln Memorial. It was the best-loved of all Washington memorials. There was a 19 foot marble statue of a seated and pensive President Abraham Lincoln. 5hundred and 55 foot white shaft of The Washington Monument is a familiar, the National Mall. It is a beautiful sight, especially when mirroring in the long reflecting Pool at its foot.
