Description
An account of the resource
<p>In 1902 the Senate Park Commission announced a plan to renovate the National Mall. Named after the committee chair, <a href="http://mallhistory.org/items/show/88">Senator James McMillan</a>, the <a href="http://mallhistory.org/items/show/350">McMillan Plan</a> redesigned the layout of the Mall from a system of informal gardens to today's streamlined, symmetrical, neoclassical landscape and architecture. This plan also supported the creation of monuments and museums along the expanse of the Mall, and the integration of <a href="http://mallhistory.org/items/show/326">East and West Potomac Parks</a> into the National Mall. The McMillan Plan changed the Mall from a commercial area and city park into a monumental center for the nation.</p>
