No entry? No kidding.

The Smithsonian’s Renwick Gallery is located on Pennsylvania Avenue NW, about a half block from the White House. Pedestrians are still allowed on parts of the street, but cars are prohibited for about a two-block stretch.

Best to view in "Original" because other versions resized by Pbase are decidedly unsharp.

Too late to see the exhibit now, posted earlier:

It’s unsettling to see the police cars lined up outside such a beautiful old building. V

Agree with Jose about the contrasting architectural styles. Why the road closure? Was it a corona virus thing or security?
