Liked this one and the idea of a building changing through time. Only thing I'd maybe change is this bit "Later, after more important wars had been won and lost" - felt a bit too summaryish.
Thanks! You're right, that bit doesn't feel quite right... I wanted to give the impression that the arch itself hadn't changed but it's importance had, as other fancy arches and theatres etc were now the new thing and the Arch was now just a familiar dot on the landscape.

Yeah I really liked that idea, just need to tweak the wording a bit.
