Constitution Avenue with a view of Washington Monument

Constitution Avenue with a view of Washington Monument

The one thing I really loved about working in downtown DC is that it feels like you are perpetually walking through history. The town is littered with monuments and memorials.

There are not many places were you can read the Emancipation Proclamation and the see the Bill of Rights in one afternoon.

During my time there, we used to call the Washington Monument the Big Stick. You can see it from so many places in town, when you get lost (and you will most likely get lost and do a couple of u-turns), it is a great way to orient yourself.
