It stands in Washington, D.C., near the Potomac River, about halfway between the Capitol and the Lincoln Memorial.

The monument has the shape of the obelisks of ancient Egypt, but it is several times larger than they were. It is 555 feet 51/8 inches (169.29 meters) high, and measures 55 feet 11/2 inches (16.9 meters) along each of its four sides at the bottom. The sides slant gradually inward as they rise to the base of the pyramidion (small pyramid) which tops the pillar. At this point, each side of the pillar is 34 feet 51/2 inches (10.5 meters) long. The pyramidion rises 55 feet (16.8 meters). The walls of the monument are 15 feet (4.6 meters) thick at the bottom and 18 inches (46 centimeters) thick at the top. They are covered with white marble from Maryland. The stones covering the pyramidion are 7 inches (18 centimeters) thick. A cap of cast aluminum protects the tip.

Inside, the monument is hollow. The inner walls are set with 193 carved memorial stones, many of historic interest. The stones were presented by individuals, societies, cities, states, and other countries. Visitors may take an elevator to an observation area at the top of the monument. From there, the view of Washington, D.C., is impressive. The elevator that takes visitors back to the ground slows down at certain levels to allow people to see some of the commemorative stones set in the walls.
