The Gateway Arch in St. Louis, Missouri is an iconic monument. Here are a few pictures from one of the visits I have made there. The arch was designed by Eero Saarinen and was built from 1963-1965.
Here are alternating views with the one above looking straight down from the observation windows at the top and the photo below is looking up at the arch from below one of the terminations of the arch.
The arch is 630 feet tall and 630 feet wide. It doesn't appear to be these dimensions as the bases are much larger and the top is quite narrow so the arch appears to be much taller than it is wide.
