Arlington Memorial Amphitheater

(

)

... that 87,000 cubic feet (2,500 m³) of Mountain White marble from Danby, Vermont were used in the construction of the Memorial Amphitheater (pictured) in the U.S. National Cemetery in Arlington, Virginia?

5x expanded by Tim1965 (talk). Nominated by PFHLai (talk) at 10:55, 21 May 2013 (UTC).

5× expansion completed from 1,465 characters before May 14 to 32,000+ characters on May 16 (and presently). Article is well-sourced, with at least one ref per paragraph. Hook is just under the max 200 characters at 198 (excluding the (pictured) part), is interesting and is supported by inline ref 42. Ref AGF since this is an offline book source. No need for QPQ, since this isn't a self nom. Image is free and looks good even at small size. Looks good to go! —Bloom6132 (talk) 20:43, 23 May 2013 (UTC)
