Description
An account of the resource
<a href="http://mallhistory.org/items/show/85">Frederick Law Olmsted</a> designed the Summerhouse so that visitors to the <a href="http://mallhistory.org/items/show/59">Capitol </a>could sit and rest as they toured the Capitol grounds. It contains intricate brickwork, several windows, wrought iron gates, and seating space for up to 22 people. The Summerhouse is hexagonal in shape. A fountain in the center once offered drinking water, but now is simply decorative. Olmsted originally intended to build a second summerhouse, but Congress objected.
