Existing comment: Washington Monument2 S (Jefferson Memorial)

The center of this picture is the Jefferson Memorial. The body of water in front of it is the Tidal Basin which is known for the cherry blossoms. The body of water behind it is the Potomac River. Directly up from the Memorial, over the Potomac, is National Airport. The bridges to the right are the 14th Street bridges where the Air Florida crash was back in 1984 or so.

The Memorial itself is on an island-like area called the East Potomac Park. Hanes Point is way off screen to the left.
