Old Executive Office Building

The Eisenhower Executive Office Building -- formerly known as the Old Executive Office Building and even earlier as the State, War, and Navy Building – is situated just west of the White House and was built in 1871-88. It’s always been one of my favorite buildings in Washington, but now that it has so many barriers around it, I just decided to take this partial shot of the front.

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

It’s sad everything is so walled off. You composed this very well. Excellent light. V

The lighting is perfect to capture the detail in that oh so interesting roof. Beautifully photographed!

I don't remember this building, but it is beautiful. I like your shot with the trees framing it. V
