The Indiana World War Memorial, begun in 1926 and finished in 1965, is a building commemorating World War I and II veterans. It is 210 feet (64 m) tall, made of Indiana limestone, and based on the Mausoleum of Mausolus. Within it is a military museum. The Plaza also includes the American Legion headquarters, Cenotaph square, an obelisk, and fountains.[27] Originally "Indiana World War Memorial Plaza Historic District", it was enlarged and renamed in December 2016.[28] Photo: Daniel Schwen, CC BY-SA 4.0, via Wikimedia Commons (https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Indiana_War_Memorial.jpg)
