Boundary Channel[edit]

(

)

... that Boundary Channel off the Potomac River in Washington, D.C. was dredged and widened to provide fill material to raise the ground by more than 8 feet (2.4 m) when The Pentagon (pictured) was constructed?

Comment: This is late nom. I'm nominating this now partly because I'm impressed with Tim's work, and partly because DYK could use another easy to approve hook. --PFHLai (talk) 10:19, 21 May 2013 (UTC)

5x expanded by Tim1965 (talk). Nominated by PFHLai (talk) at 10:19, 21 May 2013 (UTC).

Length and history verified; ref accepted AGF. Added {{convert}} to hook. Daniel Case (talk) 04:47, 24 May 2013 (UTC)
