A huge bust of President Lincoln.
The city of DC is created from a circle and this is the direct center of the city under the capitol.
The location for the first 50 years of the Supreme Court. The earliest historically significant cases were founded here.
This pillar is original to the capitol, it survived the attack of the british in 1812. You can see the war damage.
The original pillars were designed with american history in mind. The top is designed with Corn, significant to the days of Columbus and the Pilgrims transforming the nation.
