I removed the section about Washington DC for the following reasons:

1. Dubious factuality.
   1. No evidence is submitted to suggest that the city plan was meant to resemble a crucifix.
   2. Given the cardinal direction layout of Washington, this is very possibly a coincidence.
   3. it's not even perfectly symetrical.
   4. Two parts of the alleged crucifix were constructed almost 100 years after other parts.
   5. The roman didn't even pierce Jesus in the heart!
2. The supposed crucifix of Washington DC isn't even "non-religious."
3. It was a poor way to demonstrate an architectural concept that has non-arbitrary meaning.
