The Capital

Map

Washington map
Washington is the US capital, created at the beginning of the 19° Century for this purpose. It is not an industrial or financial city. We must have that in mind to understand why there are so many huge severe buildings.

The North Sud Streets are named with figures. Those oriented East - West have received a letter. The buildings numbers are given according to the block in which they are (1201 M street is the first building between 12th & 13th streets).

 Potomac Mills??? How in the world did you ever hear about Potomac Mills?? I hope you were there on one of its less crowded days. I avoid it like the plague because of all those people!
