A 2 hour tour that meanders along a path of rich, american architecture and history, providing a great opportunity to stretch your legs after a morning coffee or libatious brunch. The guide had a detailed knowledge of the many types of architecture throughout the route as well as interesting background and facts on the people who built and lived in the homes. He started with the basic history of why DuPont Circle was established and named which laid a strong foundation for the social, political, and personal information that provided us a more robust perspective on each building.

My wife and I toured with Sam. He has a broad background in history and architecture. Wonderful and concise explanations of the history, significance, architectural type (who know so many Beaux-Arts edifices in DC!) and owner personality vignettes. He explained the Shepherd invited industrialist mansions, depression conversion to embassies, the Roosevelt daughter, the Turkish jazz bros, the Alice artists, and the Edith wives among others. Truly a cornucopia of knowledge and perspective. A deep and humorous dive. Highly recommended to DC history buffs and visitors. Paul and Carol

Washington’s movers and shakers once strolled the streets of Dupont Circle, where Massachusetts Avenue was the city’s most fashionable residential address. Heiresses, industrial magnates, newspaper tycoons, and members of the political elite built opulent mansions along the avenue, all to impress Washington society. After the Great Depression, many of these magnificent mansions were converted into embassies, social clubs, and offices.
