The mansion is located in the heart of Dupont Circle, Washington DC, 10 minutes away from our Washington DC accommodations, where the Anderson family held inaugural balls and celebrations throughout Washington’s social season. The goal of Washington’s elite at that time was to make the nation’s capital a stylish and modern city with a great senses of patriotism, and the Anderson played a major role in that movement.

The home is now headquarters of the Cincinnati Society which has the mission to preserve the history of and honor the veterans of the Revolutionary War.

Regional News Washington DC Theatres

The Warner Theater, Metro Center, Washington DC

April 18, 2012 – 10:07 pm

One of our guests went to see the Capitol Steps beginning of April and gave us a good review about this theater, so we decided to “blog” about it!

The Warner Theater, originally called the Earl Theater was built in 1924 during the boom of grand theater houses and served as a venue for vaudeville and silent movies. It once boasted a rooftop garden and a famed restaurant in the basement. The theater has transitioned since then to motion pictures only eventually serving as a prime venue for live performances. Today you will find a variety of shows playing at the Warner Theater. Please visit the website for a list of upcoming performances.

The Warner Theater is accessible by the Metro Center metro station, serviced by the red, blue, and orange lines. Please visit metro’s website for additional information. If you ride the 42/43 bus from our DC B&B Inn, it will take you only 15 minutes to get over there.

The Library of Congress

March 6, 2012 – 2:33 am

Today our guests went to The Library of Congress which is located in three buildings and they were pleased with the visit!

The site is accessible by the Capitol South station (orange and blue lines) which is two blocks away from the library. Our DC B&B is only at 15 minutes with the metro system.

The Library of Congress which one of the principal missions of the library is to research inquiries made by members of Congress through the Congressional Research Service was built by Congress in 1800. In the early 19 century almost all the original collection of book had been destroyed because od the War of 1812. After this tragic moment in the Washingtonian history, Thomas Jefferson sold his entire personal collection of book (around 6000 books)!

Traveler tip: It is also open to the public, but only members of Congress, supreme Court justices and other members have the right to  check out books… By the way it is the oldest federal cultural institution in the United State and it is the largest library in the world by shelf space and number of books.
