Capitol Hill House & Garden Tour, Mother's Day 2015

By
Real Estate Agent with RLAH / @properties DC / MD / VA

This is the 58th annual Mothers Day weekend event, being held Saturday, May 9 and Sunday, May 10, 2015.

This is a great way to tour and spend the day; and is sponsored by the Capitol Hill Restoration Society.

Each year, different homes are used.  This year, and I copy this from their website:

 The Tour starts at the back side of the United States Supreme Court and runs east to Eighth Street and north to E Street. We have an outstanding collection of houses this year in a wide array of periods and styles, many with unusual details. There is a wood frame home from shortly after the Civil War, brick Dutch Tudors, Victorian bay fronts, and Federal styles. (from http://chrs.org/house-and-garden-tour/more-about-the-house-tour-2015/)

People on this tour are usually locals, who truly enjoy the benefits and history of living in Capitol Hill.  This group offers many recurring talks & tours.  Do yourself a favor, check them out and become fully immersed in this community.

David Shamansky In spirit, yes. I spoke to Mom, reminding her I was flying in late Tuesday; it's been quite some time when I've been with the family for more than a day or two, so it's maybe a delayed, albeit a week long, Mother's Day.

The support is mutual, which makes it even more appreciated.

Hi Claude - that's a really nice tour at a terrific price! What a great way to study the architecture and make yourself at home in some of these classic old homes. I would love to tour them someday!
