Washington Monument2X SE2 (Closer): Holocaust Museum
Look for:
Waterfront Washington East Potomac Channel Park ----------------------------------------- bridge (some bldg) USDA Annex ------- bridge US Dept of Bureau of Engraving Agriculture and Printing US Holocaust Memorial Museum Auditors Building
Note: Auditors Building was the first home of the Bureau of Engraving and Printing (1879 to 1914). Because of desires for security, it only has one entrance.
Bureau of Engraving and Printing was constructed in the 1930's. This is where all the paper money in the U.S. is printed.
The Holocaust Museum opened in 1993. From 1914 to 1930, the site was the temporary site of the Bureau of Engraving and Printing. Do you get the idea that that building's moved a lot in the same block?
The USDA building was built between 1904 and 1908. |
