A day in D.C.

In late Oct. 2021, I visited Washington to tour a law school, visit some friends and see some family. As someone interested in politics and American history, I took this opportunity to visit some notable landmarks and enjoy some alone time downtown. A busy Monday was filled with breakfast at a cafe, a visit to Old Alexandria and time downtown in the capital.

This is the tallest building in Washington and was the tallest building in the world when it was completed in 1884.(Photo by Aiden Keenan ‘22).A squirrel runs across the bricks leading to the US Capitol building.(Photo by Aiden Keenan ‘22).The tops of train cars are seen from a window in Union Station.(Photo by Aiden Keenan ‘22).The US Capitol building contrasts the dark clouds in the sky.(Photo by Aiden Keenan ‘22).
