Thank you partners, supporters, volunteers, and staff of National Mall and Memorial Parks.
2019 brought the restoration and reopening of the Washington Monument, ceremonies that commemorated the 75th anniversary of major World War II battles, 50,000 hours of donated time from passionate volunteers, a generous donation to modernize the museum in the Thomas Jefferson Memorial, and many other partner contributions. We are grateful for all the activities that help connect our local and international audiences to the places we treasure at National Mall and Memorial Parks. Jeffrey P. Reinbold, Superintendent
Washington Monument Elevator Modernization
On September 19, 2019, the Washington Monument re-opened after a three-year closure to modernize the elevator and construct a permanent security screening facility. The modernization of the elevator was funded by a $3 million donation from businessman and philanthropist David M. Rubenstein. Shown here, Rubenstein takes a look at the refurbished elevator machinery with Deputy Superintendent Sean Kennealy.
