Natural History Museum, Trump hotel

A view of the Smithsonian's National Museum of Natural History from the Hirshhorn Museum. It’s an impressive building, but what caught my eye was the tall tower in the distance, which used to be the historic Old Post Office Pavilion. Now it’s the infamous Trump International Hotel Washington, D.C. I should go in sometime to see what it looks like now, but just haven’t had the desire to set foot in the place.

Yes, agree with The Heritage man, I don't think the picture is spoilt by the tower, even if it is now a Trump Hotel.

A very nice composition, even with the old tower.

What money can buy !!! A really like this shot and we'll just dream that the Old Post Office is still the Old Post Office :( Would love to visit the museum V

the Smithsonian must surely be a fascinating place...too bad about the fate of the Old Post Office though, falling into less enlightened hands...

Next time we are down there I want to go here. The Natural History Museum in NYC is great and I'll bet this one is too. V
