Washington, DC - Old Post Office Tower

The Old Post Office Pavilion was built in 1899 in the Richardsonian Romanesque Style. It served as the main post office until 1914.

 

Through the 1980's, 1990's and 2000's, many times when we visited Washington, DC, we went to the observation tower of the Old Post Office. It was free and there never was a wait. The view of the city was fantastic.

 

Now with the Washington Monument closed until Spring 2019, I expect long lines for the view. But the wait is worth it.
