Impressive architecture , mosaics and stained glass throughout the monument . The bathrooms are next to the President which is a bit irreverent if you ask me.
I like it here, it's quite and peaceful . Enjoyable for history dorks like myself. Go to the top of the balcony , you'll see the best view of Cleveland
The final resting place of President Garfield, who was assassinated just 200 days after being inaugurated. Learn more about the 20th president of the United State here http://cs.pn/2caEIK4
