The Capital Garage was a ten-story parking garage that once stood at 1320 New York Avenue NW in downtown Washington, D.C. It was built for the Shannon & Luchs real estate firm and designed by local architect Arthur B. Heaton, whose landmark buildings in the city include Riggs National Bank, Stockton Hall, and the Churchill Hotel. The building was designed in the Streamline Moderne architectural style with Gothic Revival features. Ornamental details on its façade included bas-reliefs of automobiles and headlights as well as lion-headed grotesques. In addition to providing parking spaces, the Capital Garage also included a gas station, carwash, repair shop, and retail space. There was a need for parking in downtown Washington, D.C., due to increased car ownership in the 1920s, and once completed, the building was reportedly the largest parking structure of its kind in the country. It proved to be popular with customers and local businesses. During World War II, the US government leased the building for government vehicles and storage space. It later housed a car dealership and was the site of a fundraiser featuring a vehicle once driven by Adolf Hitler. Due to the increase in automobile size in the 1950s and 1960s, the parking spaces became too small for many vehicles. The decrease in business eventually resulted in the Capital Garage closing in 1973. The building was imploded the following year, but several of the bas-reliefs were saved and donated to the Smithsonian's National Museum of American History. The site now houses the Inter-American Development Bank office building.

Smothers School House was a school for African American students in Washington, D.C. It was located at 14th and H Streets, NW, just a few blocks from the White House, from about 1823—1862. The building was constructed in 1822—23 by Henry Smothers, a free black man who lived in Georgetown. He was the first teacher.The school had more than 100 students, making it larger than the several other city schools for African Americans. Smothers was the teacher for two years, then he was succeeded by John W. Prout in 1825. Prout appears to have called it the "Columbian Institute," perhaps because of a connection to the local learned society called the Columbian Institute for the Promotion of Arts and Sciences. Prout had an assistant teacher, Annie Marie Hall. Schooling was free to students, and funded by subscription supporters.Prout was succeeded by John F. Cook, Sr. The school was no longer free then; it required tuition. The school and Mr. Cook were attacked in 1835, as many colored schools were in the Snow Riot. Mr. Cook "escaped the city" and returned to teach again in 1836, continuing to 1855.The building changed hands several times. The Smothers Schoolhouse was used for schools run by the Society of Saint Vincent de Paul from 1858 to 1861. In 1862 it was burned down (or attacked again) and not reconstructed.
