There are no acknowledged Greek monuments that are related architecturally with the DC-based Washington monument.

One of the original designs did include a large Greek column, but this design was considered too expensive. The simpler obelisk was chosen.

Some people mistakenly state that there is Greek writing half way up the obelisk, however the writing is actually Welsh-and the author is unknown.
