There was so much that Gutzon Borglum had in his mind that he wanted to do with the monument in addition to carving the four faces. In his first design, he was also planning to add the map of the Louisiana Purchase with the four faces and inside the map, he had a plan of carving some of the nation’s highest accomplishments and significant incidents that occurred in the history of the country which people tend to forget about with time.
