4 1) Smithsonian Castle The Smithsonian Castle is one of the major sightseeing destinations within the capital city of Washington, D.C. It is designated as a U.S. National Historic Landmark, and is a must see stop on any tour of the city. Although it was built in the 19th century, it has a distinctly 12th century appearance that causes it to stand out among many of the other buildings surrounding it. The Smithsonian Castle was built in 1847 as the project of James Renwick Jr. The material used to build the castle is one of the reasons it is so unique. It is made from red Seneca sandstone from nearby Maryland. In less than 20 years a fire caused substantial damage to the building, but it was rebuilt immediately. Since its creation, it has been used to store American works of art, and just after 1900 it was also designated as a children's museum for the Washington D.C. area. Today the Smithsonian Castle houses the administrative offices of the Smithsonian Institute. While the offices are in use by employees, visitors are invited to tour a portion of the building, browse the small library and sit in the great room which is decorated in 19th century furnishings Jefferson Dr SW 2) Arts and Industries Building The second oldest of the Smithsonian Institution s museums, the Arts and Industries Building, is located on the National Mall in Washington, D.C. It was initially named the National Museum and was built to publicly display the Smithsonian s growing collection. Opened in 1881, the building was designed by architects Paul Schulze and Adolf Cluss. In 1971, the Museum received the designation of a National Historic Landmark. The building sits back a little further from the National Mall than the Smithsonian Castle. This is to enable an unobstructed view of the Smithsonian Castle from the US Capitol Building. The symmetrical building design is composed of a Greek cross emanating from a central rotunda. The exterior consists of geometric patterns constructed with polychrome brick. On the

5 north side of the building, the main entrance is adorned by Caspar Buberl s sculpture Columbia Protecting Science and Industry. The building s interior is partially lit by clerestory windows and skylights. The vibrant maroon colored brick of the exterior was added in In 2004, the museum closed for renovations. Because of the museum s uncertain future and declining condition, the National Trust for Historic Preservation added the building to its 2006 list of America's most endangered historical sites. The renovation will cost over $200 million and last through It is the proposed site for the National Latino Museum when it reopens. 900 Jefferson Dr SW 3) Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden Washington, D.C.'s Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden is the Smithsonian's showcase for one of the best modern and contemporary artworks collections in the United States, as well as the world. The Hirschhorn museum opened in 1974 on Washington, D.C.'s National Mall, and is named for famed art collector, Joseph H. Hirshhorn, who donated more than 6,000 pieces of art, including paintings and sculptures, to the Smithsonian in Today, the Hirshhorn Museum boasts a collection of more than 12,000 pieces of modern art from the late-nineteenth century to the mid-twentieth century and contemporary artworks from the 1970s to the present. The Hirshhorn Museum's building was designed in a striking cylindrical shape by architect Gordon Bunshaft and has three levels of exhibition space. There is a theater on the first level that features works from some of the best filmmakers in the world. The museum's second level houses special exhibitions by noted artists that rotate in and out approximately every four months. The third level features selected works from the Hirshhorn's permanent collections, including ones by artists such as Alexander Calder and Ellsworth Kelly. Seventeen modern sculptures by 20th-century greats such as Roy Lichtenstein and Tony Smith grace the Hirshhorn's four acres of gardens outside of the museum. In the winter, the two-level garden's water fountain is turned into an ice rink, where lucky visitors can skate past works of art. 700 Independence Ave SW
