        Certainly. @BK_Schwartz: @BeschlossDC I believe this would really tie Kogan Plaza together nicely. Any room in budget? We are BUFF & blue

        I saw that statue in a DC museum when I was a kid. It's awesome, if too unclothed for mid-Victorians @BeschlossDC

        Agreed! He was, I have read, very dignified and to be disrobed in a statue would not be dignified at all. @DianeCva

        @KurtRexCooper He was uncomfortable in the Presidency. Wanted to just be a country squire on his land on the Potomac, unlike the statue.

        @BeschlossDC I think the Smithsonian has displayed it on occasion. Believe I saw it in a corner of American History.
