What type of noun or pronoun that corresponds with the bolded word. Several people from our family have visited Washington Monument in D.C.?

The bolded word is "Monument". It is a common noun.

Here's why:

* Common nouns are general names for people, places, things, or ideas. "Monument" is a general term for a structure built to commemorate something or someone.

* Proper nouns are specific names for people, places, things, or ideas. "Washington Monument" is a proper noun because it's the specific name of a monument.
