  World Wide Panorama • Forgotten Places • June 2010
  Click on images or links below to view an interactive panorama.  
  These panoramas were created as part of my participation in the World Wide Panorama event for the 2010 Summer/Winter Solstice. They were all taken on June 26, 2010 between 9:00 am and 4:05 pm EST. The first series were taken at the World War I Memorial to residents of the District of Columbia that served in the war. In 2003 it was listed as one of the most endangered historic sites. It has since been rescued but is still little known and not a tourist destination. It is the only local memorial located on the National Mall.

The second series of two images were taken in Andrew Ellicott Park. Andrew Ellicott was the surveyor who placed the West Boundary Stone locating the West point of the diamond parcel of land for the original District of Columbia in 1791. In 1847 the land in Virginia was given back to the state and the stone became a historic marker in Falls Church Virginia.
