WASHINGTON — Restoration work is set to begin next month on the cracked and neglected memorial that honors World War I veterans on the National Mall.
Contractors will clean and restore the stone and repoint the memorial’s joints. Electrical systems and lighting will be replaced. Landscaping will be overhauled and nonnative plants removed to restore an open lawn around the memorial. New bluestone paving will be modeled on the original 1930s design.
