The height of Mount Rushmore is 500 feet high and 400 feet wide.he granite mountain that bears the monument was named long before i â¦ ts destiny to be the backdrop for a great mountain carving was known. Mount Rushmore was named in honor of New York lawyer Charles E. Rushmore in 1885.
No carving has been done on the mountain since that time and none is planned in the future. The granite faces of four American presidents' is scaled to men who would stand 465 feet tall! President Calvin Coolidge believed Mount Rushmore was decidedly American in its conception, magnitude and meaning.
