On a warm summer night in Washington, D.C., there's no better destination than the tallest building in the world* (*in 1855), the Washington Monument! Last night the School of Public Service Class of 2015 took a tour of the legendary obelisk. Although the Monument no longer holds its 1855 championship height distinction, modernity has also brought with it the benefits of an elevator! So rather than climb what would be 55 stories, SPS ascended in style and then enjoyed the breathtaking views. Selfies (and regular pictures) were taken.
