Great question! I think a lot about how monuments change over time – and hope we can make that more of a reality for more monuments. I want to see a monument that changes each generation, builds in intergenerational stories, makes room to update itself, and has living detoxifying plant materials as a part of it.
Sadly, there are so many to choose from. Here’s an obvious one: https://www.atlasobscura.com/places/ugly-nathan-bedford-forrest-statue
