RE: Visit to DC
Don't forget Lafayette Square. You have of course, the White House. 712 Jackson Place is the home Henry Rathbone purchased in 1867. By 1874 he outgrew that home and moved across Lafayette Square to Madison Place. His (and Clara's) home is right next to the Dolly Madison home. That home shows Rathbone's wealth. 2 doors down is the US Court of Appeals, where the Seward house was. The alley between the US Chamber of Commerce building and the Hay-Adams Hotel is the approximate location of the Slidell house where Gideon Welles lived. The Decatur House was occupied by Judah Benjamin before he "went South". You also have the Blair house. Grab lunch at Wok N Roll and/or Old Ebbitt Grill. The Robert Todd Lincoln home 3014 N St NW in Georgetown was later home of Washington Post Editor in Chief Ben Bradlee.
Don't forget Congressional Cemetery. |
