    A columbarium lines a grassy portion of Section N80 at the Arlington National Cemetery in Arlington, Va., Sept. 6, 2018. The cemetery has been a final resting place for hundreds of thousands of veterans since 1864. The columbarium is one of many new additions made possible by the Millennium Project, an initiative that involved the transferring of 27 acres of land from the National Park Service, existing ANC land, and Fort Myer.
