US-QUAKE-HISTORY-TOURISM-FILES
(FILES) in this April 10, 2014 file photo, cherry blossoms and the Washington Monument are seen on the National Mall in Washington, DC. The Washington Monument, one of the US capital's most recognizable sights, was to reopen May 12, 2014, three years after sustaining damage from a rare earthquake. The popular tourist attraction is the US capital city's tallest building at 555 feet (170-meters). The obelisk, built in honor of the first US president, George Washington, was closed after engineers found 150 cracks in the structure following a 5.8-magnitude earthquake in the neighboring state of Virginia in August 2011.
