The History of
Washington D.C. is the home of presidents, lawmakers and lobbyists. City streets are filled with those that have made history and are making history, shaping a nation. Even with extensive studying it would be hard to discover everything there is to know about Washington, D.C. Its history is long and storied. This is a first step, an overview on the history of the nation’s capital.
FORMATION OF A CAPITAL Washington D.C. was not always the location of the nation’s capital. George Washington is to thank, among other things, for moving the country’s hub to where it is now located. He was honored by having the city named after him. Before the location was chosen, other cities such as Philadelphia and New York were being considered. It was postRevolutionary war and the North and the South had to agree. Each wanted to claim the capital, so they forged a compromise between two of their greatest politicians: New York conservative Alexander Hamilton
and Thomas Jefferson from Virginia. They agreed that Jefferson southerners would support Hamilton’s proposal to burden the federal government with colonies’ war debts, while Hamilton northerners agreed to move the capital from Philadelphia to an untouched wilderness area along the Potomac River. George Washington, using his profession as a surveyor, found this site and was able to look past the uninhabited swamp land to envision a bustling city. He knew his friend Pierre L’Enfant would be up to the challenge of designing. L’Enfant was a French architect who had served in the American Continental Army. He used his experience with the grandeur of foreign cities to draw up a plan for a city with statues, fountains, tree-lined streets, an avenue book ended by a Congressional building and a Presidential Palace. L’Enfant proved to be difficult so Washington was forced to fire him and bring in surveyor Andrew Ellicott and his assistant, Benjamin Banneker to finish the job. The capital city was not built in a
Washington
DC day. It was difficult to convince people to move to a place that wasn’t deemed more than marshes and uninhabited streets. George Washington chose the location and approved the design for the White House, but never actually resided in it. Instead, second president John Adams was the first to move-in to the iconic house, still a work in progress. He and his wife Abigail found it challenging to live in an inconvenient construction zone. Washington, D.C. officially became a city in 1802. It had a presidential-appointed Mayor as well as local government and populous-elected city council. The hot and humid summer kept Congressmen and others from wanting to move to the city. From 1800 to 1803 the population only grew from 3,000 to 8,000. In 1814 the city suffered a major blow when Britians, fighting the War of 1812, marched through the city setting fires to buildings. Included in the damage were the Capitol, and The President’s House, which was officially named the White House when Teddy Roosevelt became President.
The fire created a legend in First Lady Dolley Madison, who, when fleeing the burning President’s House, saved Gilbert Stuart’s portrait of George Washington, which still hangs in the White House
today. It took three years, until 1817, for the White House repairs to be completed, while the Capitol was not totally rebuilt until 1830.
CAPITAL PLANTS ROOTS In the early 1820s the nation’s capital begins to take shape and this allowed for the creation of many landmarks still enjoyed today. RELO

George Washington University was created by an act of Congress in 1821, while the National Theatre was founded in 1835 and in 1846 the government founded the Smithsonian Institution with money from a British scientist. The Washington Monument began construction in 1848
looking for a hiding place from the war. The overcrowding caused housing shortages and rampant diseases. When the war ended in 1865, the city’s bad luck continued. That same year the Smithsonian lost original artifacts in a fire and beloved President Abraham Lincoln was assassinated by John Wilkes Booth while attending a production at Ford’s Theatre.
GOVERNMENTAL SHIFTING
and the Corcoran, the first art gallery, began in 1859. This period of flourishing also saw the death of the first President while in office. William Henry Harrison delivered the longest inaugural address in presidential history at 90 minutes—but he did it in the rain. The dreary weather conditions exposed President Harrison to pneumonia, from which he died a month later.
AFFECTS OF THE CIVIL WAR During the formation of the country the capital city location was the result of a compromise between the North and the South. When the two sides fought against each other in the Civil War, the location put the capital in a complicated situation. It was being pulled in both directions, sitting 60 miles south of the Mason-Dixon line and 100 miles north of Richmond, Va., the Confederate States’ capital city. People flocked to D.C. to set up temporary camps, and the city was filled with soldiers, escaped slaves and others
The capital city began to clean itself up in 1871 when Congress took control over the District, allowing them to improve streets, add sewers and put in water and gas lines. Congress acquired Georgetown and strategically lined streets with trees and in 1890 added electric lights and cable cars. In 1878 Congress once again changed governmental structures, creating a corporation governed by municipalities through three presidentially appointed Senate-approved commissioners. While the nation endured another presidential assassination in 1881 with the death of James Garfield, it also experienced some highs. Howard University was formed in 1871. The Washington Monument opened in 1888 after forty years of construction and was the tallest building in the world at that time. The city rounded out the century with an expansion of the Smithsonian, the opening of the Library
of Congress and the first edition of The Washington Post, which went to press in 1877.
THE TWENTIETH CENTURY In the early 1900s the city was developing by adopting the use of cars

and the railroad. Union Station, the local railroad terminal was opened in 1908. In 1901 a Park Commission was established to increase the aesthetic of the city to make it more similar to L’Enfant’s original plan and included the Lincoln Memorial and other structures on the National Mall. This effort was aided in 1912 when Mayor Yukio Ozaki of Tokyo gave Washington 3,000 Japanese cherry trees in recognition of the growing friendship between the United States and Japan. The trees bloom throughout the spring along the Tidal Basin, drawing large crowds of locals and tourists alike. The population of the city was 330,000 in 1910, but after the start of World War I workers migrated to the city raising the population to more than 430,000 by 1920.

Seems like only yesterday we were experiencing record-setting appreciation. Lotteries just for a sales appointment. And, easier-thanever-to-get mortgages. No wonder purchasers spent less time considering the location, and the home, itself. It hardly mattered. Until recently. At Classic Community Companies we were identifying smart locations and building award-winning homes long before the last boom. We’ll be here for the next one, too. Because our values have always been true. Now more than ever in our
communities, it’s easy to see.

As you walk down the street you can feel we’ve built a vibrant town. Fantastic restaurants. Unique shops, including a Harris Teeter coming soon. Schools and athletic fields within walking distance. A clubhouse and swimming pool that are far from the ordinary. An eclectic mix of authentic period style homes and more. A true neighborhood, not another subdivision, has been created. Recent articles in The Washington Post and Baltimore Sun show that Maple Lawn residents agree. “I love our home, but it’s 100 percent about the neighborhood. We wouldn’t want to live anywhere else, ever.” Just 10 minutes from Montgomery County and 20 minutes from Baltimore, yet it feels light years away. And it feels just like home.
