Just so everyone knows, if they see the Chinese Embassy picture, that is the former embassy as the new one recently opened.

It's so delicious that it could have been used for an Edwardian postcard, only thing missing is trolley-trams and people with umbrellas. And here it was, I thought D.C. was choked in the gray architecture of government and slums, boy was I wrong! Thanks again StormShadow.

WOW! I though Baltimore was beautiful. Those embassies just take the cake! But the modern architecture in Baltimore is a lot better. I think the Italian embassy has purple marble columns on the front or some embassy did and it was very beautiful.

The only thing that's really missing is a picture of Union Station's interior.

I love those old wartime photos of DC! It seems strange to look at now, seeing those white families living in those rowhouses.
