On Saturday, Oct. 27, in Columbus, Ohio, while former Secretary of State Colin Powell and others spoke, the new 53,000-square-foot National Veterans Memorial and Museum hovered nearby. Based on a vision from late Ohio senator and astronaut John Glenn and designed by New York- and Portland, Ore.-based Allied Works Architecture, three concentric rings of structural concrete shape the museum and provide a unified location to honor the veterans from all of our country's conflicts. The museum also represents a step forward in the reinvigoration of the city's riverfront.
