View from the Top of the Washington Monument


A Vintage Photos Theme Park photo for the theme of iconic landmark/tourist destination.
This is an undated snapshot of a somewhat tilted view looking west over the Reflecting Pool toward the Lincoln Memorial from the top of the Washington Monument in Washington, D.C. I was surprised to see all the buildings located along the left and right sides of the Reflecting Pool, and I discovered that these were "temporary" buildings constructed during World War II. The last of them was torn down in 1971, and Constitution Gardens, the Vietnam Veterans Memorial, and other monuments have taken their place.
