Best Answer

There are numerous statues, memorials, tourist attractions in Washington DC but there is only one monument-the Washington Monument.

The design of the Washington Monument was decided by a design competition held in 1836. The winner, architect Robert Mills, was well-qualified for the commission. His original design included a colonnade around the base. However, this was omitted during the lengthy and costly construction phase.
