Pyramidion at top of the obelisk weighs 172 tons.

Pyramidion

The monument has a pyramid shaped roof called the Pyramidion. The Pyramidion is made of 13 layers of stones. The 12 bottom layers are of equal thickness. The 13th stone is at the apex and is a small solid stone pyramidion. The 13 layers represent the 13 states.
On the very top of the monument and on top of the small solid stone pyramidion, which is the 13th layer, is a 9" aluminum cap.
In total, the Pyramidion is 55 feet tall. It serves as a roof.
The hollow shaft of the monument, which is beneath the Pyramidion, is 500 feet and 1/8 inch tall.
People have used the word Pyramidion for the entire monument, which is more accurately described as an obelisk with a Pyramidion (a pyramid shaped) roof.
The monument is an architectural statement by Forefathers that the government of the United States was created as an act of divine providence and that George Washington was a man of destiny.

The Hope diamond is the world's largest deep blue diamond. AT 45.52 carats, it is classified as a type IIb diamond. The diamond's blue coloration is attributed to trace amounts of boron in the stone.

DC St. Patrick's Day Parade - The McCarthy Clan and their green party truck.

I think this was the best float of the whole parade. They showed the most energy and it looked like they were having fun. THEY MADE THE PARADE!!!
