Pedicabs and Peace Monument, U.S. Capitol West...

...a Washington Summer Moment

Pedicab sightseeing drivers relax and chat while awaiting customers on this summer afternoon in Washington.

The Peace Monument, by sculptor Franklin Simmons, honors the officers, seamen, and marines of the United States Navy who lost their lives at sea during the American Civil War. It is one of three large statues that flank the west side of the U.S. Capitol, the others being the James A. Garfield Monument and the Ulysses S. Grant Memorial.
