CNN Student News- Washington Memonment

1.) In August there was a earthquake that shook the east coast. As a result the Washington Monument, in Washington D.C, was left with cracks in it. Durning the earthquake a parker ranger helped guide people out of the building and went back to help more. The Washington Monument stands at 550 ft. tall. A team of enigneers are working to repeare the cracks.

2.) I feel that it is very imperative that the cracks on the Monument get fixed. This buliding means alot to Americans. If this building were to fall it would be devasting. I hope they can fix the cracks and see if there is a why to get the building to hold against an earthquake.

3.) I will continue to watch to see if the cracks in the Washington Monument get fixed.
