A proposed arch near Arlington National Cemetery is being assessed by the National Park Service. The service found that the arch could have adverse effects on historic landmarks in the Washington area. The proposed arch, which would stand 250 feet tall, may alter the characteristics of nearby historic properties.

This could diminish the integrity of these properties, including their location, design, and setting. Further details on the proposed arch and its potential impact are available from the National Park Service. The assessment is part of an ongoing review of the proposal, with other agencies also examining the plan.
