Description

DeFerrari and Sefton have created a highly illustrated architectural "biography" of one of DC's most important boulevards. From the front door of the White House, this north-south artery runs through the middle of the DC and extends just past its border with Maryland, making it as central to the cityscape as it is to DC's history and culture.
