Washington Monument. Located almost due east of the Reflecting Pool and the Lincoln Memorial, the monument, made of marble, granite, and bluestone gneiss, is both the world's tallest stone structure and the world's tallest obelisk, standing 554 ft tall according to the National Geodetic Survey (measured 2013 - 14) or 555 ft tall according to the National Park Service (measured 1884). It is the tallest monumental column in the world if all are measured above their pedestrian entrances. Upon completion, it became the world's tallest structure, a title previously held by the Cologne Cathedral.
