| Description: This is the largest and only memorial in the United States dedicated to those who served in WWI and its museum is the only one whose sole theme is that war. The Memorial was opened in 1926 with the fountains being completed in the 1930's.. The facility is currently closed to the public. Renovation is underway at an estimated cost of $45 million. Funds are being recruited from both public and private sectors. It is hoped that the memorial will re-open in 2002. The two fountains located on the north side will be renovated as part of this major project. |
