The Thomas Jefferson Memorial sits along the southern bank of the Tidal Basin. It is typically accessed by visitors on foot since there is no public parking near the memorial with the exception of accessible parking. The memorial is also accessed by buses which drop off passengers to the south west of the memorial. The majority of visitors walk to the plaza and the main steps of the memorial from the west side. If they enter the lower level of the memorial, they typically enter from the west side which is why that entrance is represented in the following photos.

Exhibits

The lower level space was unfinished from the monument’s dedication in 1943 until 1999 when it was upgraded to include restrooms, elevator access, retail, and exhibits. The current layout creates a space that is mostly for circulation, has redundant stores, poor lighting, and a confusing path to the elevator. Additionally, the exhibits are text heavy and hard to read, and lack accessible features such as tactile models, proper contrast, audio description, and assistive listening. Under current A/E and Construction contracts, the space will be demolished and reconfigured (see page 12). Any free-standing exhibitry is available for reuse.
