Almost immediately after the death of George Washington in 1799, the United States began to think of ways to commemorate and honor the father of the country.

The process of creating a monument took decades. There were multiple aborted designs and one idea that was built but never fully implemented.

What ended up being constructed became the world’s tallest structure at the time and became the icon that defines the city of Washington, DC.

Learn more about the Washington Monument, why it was built, and how on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
