I love the desire to put water features in what was historically a fucking malarial swamp. WOOF. Thank the lawd the updated the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting pool to add some tidal circulation before I visited. If I had to look at some fucking stagnant muck pond defacing the nation's capitol, this hydraulic engineer would have lost his damn mind. Speaking of which, that "pond" by the Vietnam Memorial is some real fuckshit doe, completely covered in algae and dirty diapers. Even the ducks were grossed out.
