The Washington Monument
The Washington Monument is tall. In fact it is so tall that it can appear short. The worlds largest free standing masonry structure has walls 16 feet thick at its base and 8 inches thick at the top. It was designed by Robert Mills and it opened on my birthday in 1888 but 79 years before I was born.
