Notable Landmarks

Memorials

The Washington Memorial: A marble obelisk built in 1884 to honor the USA's first President, George Washington, it has a shallow reflecting pool in front of the memorial which was deepened at some point so that Earthlicans could go swimming.
The Clinton Memorial: A second obelisk built next to the Washington memorial, to honor Bill Clinton. It stands noticeably taller than its Washingtonian counterpart.
The Lincoln Memorial: A marble temple built with an imposing statue of Abraham Lincoln with inscriptions of his famous speeches.

Government Buildings

The White House: the traditional home of the sitting President, it was stolen from Washington in the 2600's by the super villain governor of New New York and relocated to Monument Beach. There it was destroyed during the First Omicronian Invasion of Earth in 3000, but was rebuilt by 3008 back in Washington D.C., where President Nixon lived out his latest term.
Earth's Supreme Court building: where the Supreme Court of Earth meets and decides cases.
