The National Mall’s current alignment dates to Pierre L’Enfant’s 1791 plan and later McMillan Commission revisions in the early 1900s, shaping the axial vistas visitors see today.
Conservation
Using electric vehicles reduces local emissions on the Mall; visitors are encouraged to stay on paths, pack out litter, and limit single-use plastics to protect parklands.
