Thomas Jefferson Memorial Neoclassical Foggy Tidal Basin Washington DC United States // WASHINGTON DC, District of Columbia — The Thomas Jefferson Memorial stands shrouded in heavy fog across the calm waters of the Tidal Basin. Designed by architect John Russell Pope and completed in 1943, the Neoclassical structure is modeled after the Pantheon in Rome, reflecting Jefferson's own architectural preferences. The monument's exterior is constructed from Imperial Danby marble, featuring a circular colonnade of Ionic columns that reflect softly in the adjacent man-made reservoir.
