Columbus Circle (Washington, D.C.)
Columbus Circle, also known as Union Station Plaza or Columbus Plaza, is a traffic circle at the intersection of Delaware, Louisiana and Massachusetts Avenues and E and First Streets, Northeast in Washington, D.C.
It is located between Union Station and the grounds of the United States Capitol.
Union Station and its access roads interrupt this circle on one side, forming an arc.
The centerpiece of the circle is the Columbus Fountain, flanked by three flagpoles, designed by Daniel Burnham.
The circle is ringed by flags of each of the 50 U.S. states in order of admission to the Union plus the flags of the U.S. territories and the District of Columbia. It is enclosed with a stone balustrade.〔http://pdfhost.focus.nps.gov/docs/NRHP/Text/80004523.pdf〕
The plaza was put through a massive renovation between 2011 and 2013.〔(D.C. to rebuild Union Station plaza - Dr. Gridlock - The Washington Post )〕
