Inside the Washington Monument

Inside the Washington Monument: We’re in Washington D.C. visiting the Washington Monument and meeting up with Sally Jewell former U.S. Secretary of the Interior under President Obama. The Washington Monument is the world’s tallest stone structure made from marble, granite and bluestone. It was designed in 1835. as a tribute to General George Washington who won the revolutionary war. The inner walls of the monument tell a story about how this structure was built. When it opened in 1878, the Washington Monument was the tallest building in the world. It’s still the tallest in Washington D.C.

Thanks for refreshing a childhood memory of the inside of the Washington Monument. During a family visit to D.C. in the mid-1950's, we kids convinced my dad to climb the steps with us -- both up and down! It was a wonderful adventure to examine the many special stones lining the inter walls of the monument. From the top I took a snapshot of the Jefferson Memorial with my "brownie" camera that took a prize in my hometown summer photo contest. Coming down was the hardest: rough on the knees. Needless to say we all had hearty appetites for lunch that day. What a pity the stairway had to be closed to protect the stones from vandalism!
