Developer Unveils Plans to Build a Peace Monument
posted 11:14 am Sat October 06, 2007 - WASHINGTON
The National Park Service says there's no room for such at tower on the National Mall.
If it's not possible to build on those sites, Abramson says he's willing to look elsewhere and buy property to build the tower. He's asking people for suggestions on a location.
The idea for his "Tower of Invincibility," as he calls it, is inspired by Transcendental Meditation. Abramson says he meditates twice a day for 20 minutes.
Doubters should consider Abramson's success in acting on his ideas. His real estate firm, Tower Companies, has built White Flint Mall and a large office complex downtown.

There is an utterly unused triangle park at Wisconsin/Massachusetts/Garfield streets in NW. It would make a nice counter point to the towers of the national cathedral.
