Washington Monument

he Washington Monument is a landmark in Washington, D.C.

The Transformers cartoon
During a battle near the Washington Monument, Brawn tied a cable around the base of the monument and roped Thundercracker with the other end. The jet was unable to escape and easy pickings for Optimus Prime. At the conclusion of the battle, during the inevitable Decepticon retreat, Megatron gave the side of the monument a good punch. As it began to crumble, Optimus and Grimlock stopped it from toppling over, and Slag repaired it with his fire-breath. The Washington Monument was also one of the first monuments scheduled to be treated with corrostop. Whether it was ever coated is unknown.

Marvel The Transformers comics
The Washington Monument was part of Gary Acton's trip for his family. Once they arrived, they saw Runabout and Runamuck draw graffiti on the tower.

Hawk passed the Washington Monument when he pondered about his failed relationship with Barbara Larkin.

The Adventures of Super Mario Bros. 3
The Washington Monument appears twice in The Adventures of Super Mario Bros. 3 episode "Reptiles in the Rose Garden". Its first appearance is barely notable; it is merely shown in the background for a brief moment when the Doomship first arrives in Washington, D.C.

Later on, when Mario is trying to warp the White House back from Dark Land, he accidentally places the entire building on top of the Washington Monument, where it somehow manages to keep its balance. Fortunately, Mario is quick to correct this mistake, using the Levitation Beam to remove the White House from atop the Washington Monument and move it to where it belongs.
