Walter E. Washington Convention Center
The beautiful Walter E. Washington Convention Center is brand new as far as the usual D.C. building is concerned, but its history is long and interesting.
The city’s first convention center was built in 1874, and a second floor was added in 1893. This conference hall served D.C. for a little over fifty years! The present Washington Convention Center opened in 2003.
