Summary
[edit]DescriptionMetropolitan Square - Washington DC - south facade upper floors.JPG |
English: Looking northwest along F Street NW at the upper floors of Metropolitan Square in Washington, D.C., in the United States. Metropolitan Square is a 12-story hotel and office building complex that occupies the entire block between F and G Streets NW and 14th and 15th Streets NW (due east across the street from the United States Treasury Building). The complex was proposed in November 1977 by developer Oliver T. Carr. After several years of legal battles, Carr agreed to retain the Beaux Arts western facades of the Keith-Albee Building and the Metropolitan National Bank Building. Rhodes Tavern was razed. Carr retained architect Vlastimil Koubek to design the new building behind the facade, and hired the New York City firm of Skidmore, Owings and Merrill as consulting architects. Construction on the new building began in 1980. This image shows the copper Mansard roof and a portion of the upper south facade of the Keith-Albee Building on the corner of 15th and F Streets NW. The is in contrast to the Modernist new building constructed behind this facade. The projecting bay windows, separated by ornamental false lintels, partly mimics the dormer windows and pediments in the older roof. |
