Halcyon House

Halcyon House is a Federal-style home in Washington, D.C. Located in the center of Georgetown, the house was built beginning in 1787 by the first Secretary of the Navy, Benjamin Stoddert. Its gardens were designed by Pierre L'Enfant, and for several decades in the early 19th century Halcyon House was the center of much of Washington's social life. History After the death of his wife and his finances declining, Stoddert transferred ownership of Halcyon House in 1802 to his daughter, Elizabeth Ewell, and her husband, Thomas. Thomas and Elizabeth's sixth child, Richard S. Ewell, was born in the house in 1817, and he went on to become a noted Confederate general during the American Civil War under Stonewall Jackson and Robert E. Lee. The Ewells vacated the home in 1818. A succession of owners had possession of the house over the next 80 years. Halcyon House was sold in 1900 to Albert Clemens, a nephew of Mark Twain. The original structure was heavily altered over the next 38 years as Clemens renovated the house and added structures. Clemens believed that perpetually rebuilding the house would extend his life. The coach house was joined to the building, the north face and rear of the house added onto extensively with apartments, rooms were built within rooms, hallways added and then walled off, and even a small crypt added in one room. After Clemens' death, the house stood unoccupied for four years until purchased by Dorothy W. Sterling, the wife of the U.S. Ambassador to Sweden. Ownership changed again in 1951, and Georgetown University bought the property in 1961 and used it as a dormitory. Halcyon House was purchased by architect Edmund Dreyfuss in 1966 and, as of 2009, was occupied by his son, noted sculptor John Dreyfuss. The historic home was extensively reconstructed from 1978 to 1995 to restore it to its original appearance. The house and grounds are listed on the National Register of Historic Places and during the period Dreyfuss maintained residency and ownership, served primarily as a venue for special events. Halcyon House was put on the market in 2008 for $30 million. It was re-listed in January 2010 and, as of September 20, 2010, had been on the market for 250 days and was listed at $19.5 million. In November 2011 the Halcyon House sold for a price of $11 million to Dr. Sachiko Kuno, and Dr. Ryuji Ueno, just two weeks after the price was lowered from $15 million. The house was used as headquarters for Halcyon, a non-profit whose mission is to "accelerate the impact-driven future of business", from 2014 to 2026 In 2026, Halcyon House was acquired by Washington Commanders owner Joshua Harris, who, as of January 2026, plans to use it as a single-family house.

Hampshire Garden Apartment Buildings

Hampshire Garden Apartment Buildings are historic structures located in the Petworth neighborhood in the Northwest quadrant of Washington, D.C. They were listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1994. It is also a D.C. Historic Landmark. History The buildings of the Hampshire Garden Apartments compose the first fully developed garden apartment complex in the city, although only part of it was built. The initial plan was for the complex to have 2,500 units, but the Great Depression brought construction to an end in 1929. The complex was built as middle-class housing and was an early example of cooperative ownership. The nine buildings occupy an entire block and surround an oval-shaped common lawn. They are all two stories tall and follow a cross-shaped plan. Decorative elements in the Tudor revival style include half timbering, crenellated towers and entrances trimmed in carved stone. The exteriors of the buildings were designed by James E. Cooper and George T. Santmyers designed the interiors. Parks and Baxter served as the landscape architects. References
Georgetown University Jesuit Community Cemetery

The Jesuit Community Cemetery on the campus of Georgetown University in Washington, D.C., is the final resting place for Jesuits who were affiliated with the university. It was first established in 1808 and was moved to its present location in 1854. History The Jesuit cemetery was originally established in 1808 at the southern end of Healy Hall. The first person buried there was Thomas Kelly, S.J. on August 16, 1808. With the construction of Maguire Hall, university administrators ordered the cemetery to be moved to its present location in 1854, so that it would not be immediately next to the hall. This required the exhumation and relocation of the remains of 46 Jesuits. In 1964, a senior administrator proposed to university president Edward B. Bunn the idea of exhuming the bodies once again and removing them to the cemetery at Woodstock College in Maryland, as doing so would free up approximately one acre of land on the campus that could be used for building. Today, the cemetery is situated in the middle of Georgetown's campus, between the Edward B. Bunn S.J. Intercultural Center and Harbin Hall. As of 2009, the cemetery is the resting place for 350 Jesuits, 17 of whom served as president of Georgetown University. It is the oldest of the cemeteries owned by the university. As with other Jesuit cemeteries around the world, all of the headstones are uniform. Many of the headstones are marked in Latin with coadjutor to indicate that the decedent was a Jesuit brother, or sacerdos to indicate that the decedent was a priest or scholastic (Jesuit priest in training). Notable interments Among the notable burials are: Robert W. Brady Timothy Brosnahan Edward B. Bunn Gerard Campbell Anthony F. Ciampi William Francis Clarke Edward I. Devitt James A.

Das Hecht Company Warehouse in Washington, D.C. im Stadtteil Ivy City ist ein Gebäude im Stil der Streamline-Moderne aus dem Jahr 1937. Der Entwurf stammt von Gilbert V. Steel vom Washingtoner Ingenieurbüro Abbott und Merkt, New York Avenue. Es diente als Zentrallager für das Handelsunternehmen Hecht’s. Im Jahre 1948 erfolgte eine Vergrößerung des Gebäudes. In der Gebäudefassade wurden Glasbausteine im größeren Stil eingesetzt. Auch eine sternförmige, zwölfspitzige Kuppel an der Ecke Okie und Fenwick Street besteht aus Glasbausteinen, die nachts beleuchtet werden. In Höhe des fünften Stockwerks ist in die Glasbausteinfassade der Schriftzug „The Hecht Co“ mit schwarzen Ziegeln eingearbeitet. Bei der Eröffnung beinhaltete das Gebäude eine Autowerkstatt sowie eine Klimaanlage für den Keller und die ersten beiden Stockwerke. Außerdem war ein eigener Gleisanschluss mit drei Bahnsteigen vorhanden. Im Jahr 1992 wurde das Gebäude unter Verwendung passender Materialien saniert. Die Aufnahme als Denkmal ins nationale Verzeichnis historischer Stätten erfolgte am 25. Mai 1994 unter der Referenznummer 94000446. Nach der Schließung des Lagers im Jahre 2006 stand das Gebäude leer. 2014 wurde es, äußerlich weitgehend unverändert, als Komplex mit Wohnungen, Büros und Einzelhandel wiedereröffnet.

Hecht Company Warehouse

The Hecht Company Warehouse in Washington, D.C. is a Streamline Moderne style building. Designed by engineer Gilbert V. Steel of the New York engineering firm Abbott and Merkt, and prominently located on New York Avenue in Ivy City, it served as the central warehouse for The Hecht Company from its construction in 1937 and expansion in 1948. The building uses glass block extensively, culminating in a twelve-pointed star-shaped cupola at the corner, which is illuminated at night. Black brick interspersed with glass block spells out "The Hecht Co" at the fifth floor. At its opening, the building featured an in-house vehicle repair shop, air conditioning for the basement and first two floors, and three railroad track platforms. A careful rehabilitation was carried out in 1992, using matching materials. The site and surrounding area are currently under redevelopment to turn the building into a mixed-use retail and residential complex called the Hecht Warehouse District.

Hiram W. Johnson House

The Hiram W. Johnson House, also known as Mountjoy Bayly House, Chaplains Memorial Building or Parkington, is an historic house at 122 Maryland Avenue, Northeast, Washington, D.C., in the Capitol Hill neighborhood. Built about 1822, it is most notable as the home of Hiram Johnson (1866–1945), a prominent force in the Progressive Party of the early 20th century and its vice presidential candidate under Theodore Roosevelt in the 1912 election. It was declared a National Historic Landmark in 1976, and contributing property to the Capitol Hill Historic District. History The Hiram W. Johnson House is located on Capitol Hill, occupying a parcel bounded on the north by Constitution Avenue and the south by Maryland Avenue. It is just north of the United States Supreme Court and south of the Hart Senate Office Building, and is oriented facing south toward Maryland Avenue. It is a 2+1⁄2-story brick building (painted white), with a raised basement and a mansard roof providing a full third floor. Its main facade is five bays wide, with a center entrance accessed via side-facing stairs. The entrance surround has pilasters rising to a bracketed segmental-arch pediment. First-floor windows are elongated, and topped by headers decorated with swags. Second-floor windows are topped by splayed lintels with keystones, and have shallow wrought iron balconies. The house was built sometime after the War of 1812 in a Federal style, and was later given its present Second Empire treatment. It was the residence of the second Sergeant at Arms of the Senate, General Mountjoy Bayly, an officer of the Maryland Line during the Revolutionary War and an original member of The Society of the Cincinnati in the state of Maryland. From 1899 to 1924 it was home to an appellate court judge, and it was briefly owned by a band of the Schwarzenau Brethren before it was purchased in 1929 by Hiram Johnson. Owners or occupants since then have included the American Civil Liberties Union and the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee. Johnson was a politician from California, and a leading voice of progressivism and reform in the Republican Party for many years. He served as Governor of California, implementing a sweeping progressive agenda, and was a founder of the Progressive Party that contested the 1912 election with Johnson as its vice presidential candidate. In the 1930s Johnson supported the Democratic New Deal programs. He was also a maverick on foreign policy, steadfastly taking isolationist positions before and after both world wars.

Phillips Collection

La Colección Phillips es un museo de arte en Washington D. C. que fue fundado por Duncan Phillips en 1921 con su colección privada. Le dio el nombre de Galería Memorial Phillips.

Phillips Collection

Duncan Phillips művészettörténész és műgyűjtő 1921-ben saját házában rendezte be és nyitotta meg a modern művészeti és klasszikus alkotásokból álló képgyűjteményének múzeumát, a Phillips Memorial Galleryt. Napjainkban is Duncan Phillips egykori palotájában tekinthető meg a gyűjtemény. Címe: Phillips Gyűjtemény, Georgetown negyed, 1600 21st Street NW, Washington, Egyesült Államok. A gyűjtemény jellege A gyűjteményben a klasszikusok mellett (El Greco, Goya) elsősorban a 19. század második felétől jelentkező modern festészeti irányzatok képviselőinek alkotásait tanulmányozhatjuk. Néhány nagy festő neve a modernek közül: Honoré Daumier (1808-1879), Édouard Manet (1832-1883), Van Gogh (1853-1890), Alfred Sisley (1839-1899), Pierre-Auguste Renoir (1841-1919), Edgar Degas (1834-1917), Amedeo Modigliani (1884-1920), Vaszilij Kandinszkij (1866-1944), Pablo Picasso (1881-1973), Joan Miró (1893-1983), Clifford Still, Philipp Guston. A gyűjtemény története A gyűjtemény létrejötte teljes egészében Phillips Duncan (1886-1966) személyéhez kötődik. Gazdag pittsburghi bankárcsaládból származott. A Yale egyetemen végezte el a művészettörténet szakot, első szakcikke a modern művészetekről 1905-ben jelent meg. Testvérével Európába utazott, jártak Párizsban is, s ekkor határozták el, hogy gyűjteni fogják a modern művészeti alkotásokat. A modern művészeti alkotásokat éppen olyan fontosnak tartották, mint a klasszikusokat. 1916-tól kezdtek képeket gyűjteni, de mihelyt apját és testvérét elvesztette ugyanazon a napon, utána már teljesen a képgyűjtésnek szentelte az idejét mintegy menekülésképpen. Már 1918-ban megalapította a Phillips Memorial Art Gallery-t apja és testvére tiszteletére. Az 1921-es megnyitáskor 230 festménye volt, ezt szorgalmasan gyarapította tovább 1966-ban bekövetkezett haláláig. Auguste Renoir Evezősök reggelije c. képét 1923-ban vásárolta Durand Ruel párizsi műkereskedőtől. Annyira szerette ezt a képet, hogy azt nyilatkozta róla, ez az egy kép felér az összes Tizianóval vagy Rubensszel. 2006-ban jelentős felújítást kellett végezni a műgyűjtő egykori palotáján, ennek következtében mód nyílt arra, hogy vándorkiállítást rendezzenek Londonban és Párizsban a gyűjtemény válogatott darabjaiból. A párizsi kiállítás tudósítója, Nánási Regina jelezte, hogy óriási volt az érdeklődés, különös tekintettel az impresszionistákra. Renoir mellett Van Gogh és Degas művei is elnyerték a közönség tetszését. Galéria Források Kis Csaba: Amerikai Egyesült Államok. Budapest, Panoráma, 1994.
