Design for Roosevelt Memorial by Pope submitted to Congress
The Roosevelt Memorial association submitted John Russell Pope's design for a Theodore Roosevelt memorial to Congress. The plan centers a water fountain on an island in the Potomac with curving east west colonnades and a living water column symbolizing Roosevelt’s enduring civic vitality. The site near the White House provides a gateway linking north and south, east and west, and uses classical architecture to harmonize with Washington.
