Meridian Hill Park possesses national significance in commemorating the history of the United States of America. With its formal symmetry and grand central cascade, the park is among the finest examples of Neoclassical landscape design in the nation. Built by the U.S. government between 1912 and 1916, it was designed by George Burnap, Horace Beaslee and Furruccio Vitale, with innovative concrete construction by John J. Early.
