Charles Street and the Washinngton Monument
by AKtravelers

There is a more famous, taller and bolder Washington Monument located in the Nation's Capitol 50 miles south of Baltimore, but it is not the first Washington Monument. That distinction belongs to the column situated in the middle of North Charles Street. Baltimore's Washington Monument was built in 1799, the year of the Revolutionary War general and first president's death.
