Presidential memorials in the United States
A presidential memorial may have a physical element which consists of a monument, a statue within a monument, a historical home, a presidential library, and other sites whose entire presence consists of a physical structure that is a permanent remembrance of the president it represents.
Located in a wing of the Ronald Reagan Building in Washington, D.C., the Wilson Center has a small exhibit concerning President Wilson's life and work, but it is best known for its work to unite the world of ideas with the world of policy by supporting scholarship linked to issues of contemporary importance.
In this way the living memorial perpetuates President Wilson's legacy of scholarship linked closely to international relations.
Similarly, the Harry S. Truman Scholarship honors U.S. college students dedicated to public service and policy leadership, and thus may be considered a memorial with solely a living element.
Multiple statues, homes, and other physical memorials to some presidents exist; only large structures are mentioned below: John Adams Building Thomas Jefferson Building Thomas Jefferson's Monticello James Madison Memorial Building James Monroe's Highland Andrew Jackson's The Hermitage Andrew Jackson State Park President James K.
