Kõik olulised ametiasutused toodi Philadelphiast Washingtoni. Washingtonis ei ole pilvelõhkujaid, kuna ükski hoone ei tohi olla Kapitooliumist kõrgem. Ainult üks ehitis on Kapitooliumist kõrgem ja see on G.Washingtoni mälestussammas. Ameerika nelja tuntuma presideni näod on raiutud Rushmore`i kaljusse. Rushmore asub Lõuna-Dakota osariigis. Nende presidentide nimed on: George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Abraham Lincoln ja Theodore Rosevelt. Need näod raius sinna skulptor Gutzon Borglum.Muidugi ei raiunud ta neid nägusid sinna üksi, vaid alustas suurprojekti mis kestis 14 aastat. Borglum ise aga selle valmimist ei näinud kuna ta suri enne ise ära. Selle töö viis tal lõpuni tema poeg Lincoln.

Põhjus, miks ma valisin just selle teema on ehk sellepärast, et tegemist on läbi aegade, vähemalt minu arust, ühe kõige kuulsama presidendiga.

Enne Washingtoni oli USA pealinn Philadelphia, kuid peale 1889. Aastat kannavad Washingtoni nime nii pealinn kui ka osariik. Washingtonis Valge Maja taga asub presidendile püstitatud tornilaadne mälestussammas, mis on ainus Kapitooliumist kõrgem ehitis. Peale selle on G.Washingtoni nägu raiutud Lõuna-Dakotas asuvasse Rushmore’i kaljusse koos teiste tuntuimate presidentidega, kelleks on Thomas Jefferson, Abraham Lincoln ja Theodore Rosevelt. Suurprojekti algatas skulptor Gutzon Borglum, kes kahjuks ise projekti lõpetamise eel suri. 14 aastat kestnud projekti viis lõpuni G.Borglumi poeg Lincoln. Valisin sellise referaadi teema, sest soovisin G.Washingtoni kohta rohkem teada saada. Siiani teadsin vaid seda, et ta oli Ameerika ühendriikide esimene president.
