First, it's cockeyed, had a layer with a vertical line.. match their fleur de lis with that.. then did another line layer over streets.. good enough. That's north, man. Then to figure out the lower red line, had one from the white house to the middle, duplicated that then it goes into the water. That's the distance the Jefferson memorial is. Like what went on there.. they put a buncha dirt. Shit's so off.
Oh, here we go.. explaining why the Washington monument obelisk wasn't built at the cross point. lol.
"The Jefferson Memorial and the White House form anchor points to the National Mall in Washington, D.C. The Washington Monument, initially intended to be built at the intersection of the White House and the Jefferson Memorial's site, was ultimately built further east because the ground at that location was deemed too soft and swampy.[5]"
