big ass faux painted columns

these gigantic columns are at the national building museum which is always a great place to visit

the sculptural frieze around the outside is terrific, the gift shop is the best in the city, and they have cool exhibits.

i saw the Architectural Details exhibit and was very impressed and inspired.

you should take their Civil War Ghost Tour - they do it right around Halloween every year. Great stories about the history of the building and about ghost sightings.

their gift shop is *really* good.
I always feel stupid saying that. hey, have you seen the glass exhibit at the renwick?
