Capital Parks, now busy recondi-
tioning the canal from Georgetown
to Seneca, Md, for recreational pur-
poses, has planned to recondition
the historic house site.
1t was not decided until recently,
however, whether the house should
be remodeled as a Key Museum,
torn down or put to a practical use.
It was found that absence of Key
memorabilia acted against making
1t into museum and that a con-
cession and boathouse were needed.
Three different plans have been
worked up to restore the house to
something like its original state,
adding to 1t and adapting it for
concession and boathouse purposes.
It is proposed to restore the front
or M street side of the house to
either an approximation Of its orig
inal design or to one or two other
appropriate designs. The canal side
of the structure will be devel-
oped as boathouse and recreation
building forming the Washington
terminus for canal users.
The house which originally oc-
cupied the site was lived in by the
author of the national anthem in
the early 1800s. He maintained his
law Offices in it.
