haha it's actually the giant mormon temple, but the running joke around dc is that it's the emerald city of oz
so much so that since the 70s people have climbed up and and written "SURRENDER DOROTHY" in giant letters on some of these overpasses on 495
but the police are quick to take them down (apparently the mormons don't find it that funny).
a few times some intrepid pranksters have managed to sneak in and put green gels over the lights that light it up at night so the whole thing looks green (kinda like this, but greener).
which is actually pretty impressive since the security around that place is pretty tight.
