Piece Description

Washington DC’s latest national memorial on The Mall sprawls over seven acres of ground between the Washington Monument and the Lincoln Memorial. It’s the creation of architect Friedrich St. Florian who guides host Mike Cuthbert and us through its themes and spaces that celebrate the valor of many of this nation’s oldest veterans. The memorial officially opens Memorial Day Weekend.
