Flans of the Capitol. 93
BY
THE CAPITOL.
The Capitol fronts the east, and stands on a plateau ninety feet above the level of the
Potomac, in latitude 38° 53’ 20.”’4 north and longitude 77° 00’ 35.7 west from Greenwich.
The southeast corner. stone of the original building was laid on the 18th of September, 1793,
by President Washington, aided by the I'reemasons of Maryland. It was constructed of sand-
stone, painted white, from an island in Aquia Creek, Virginia, under the direction of Stephen
H. Hallett, James Hoban, Geo. Hadfield, and afterwards of B. H. Latrobe, architects. The
north wing was finished in 1800 and the south wing in 1811, a wooden passage-way con-
necting them. On the 24th of August, 1814, the interior of both wings was destroyed by
British incendiaries, but they were immediately rebuilt. In 1818 the central portion of the
building was commenced under the architectural superintendence of Charles Bulfinch, and
the original building was finally completed in 1827. Its cost, including the grading of the
grounds; alterations, and repairs, up to 1827, was $2,433,844 13.
The corner-stone of the extensions to the Capitol was laid on the 4th of July, 1851, by
President Fillmore, Daniel Webster officiating as orator of the day. Thomas U. Walter was
architect, and subsequently Edward Clark, under whose direction the work was completed in
November, 1867. The material used for the extensions is white marble from the quarries at
Lee, Massachusetts, with white marble columns from the quarries at Cockeysville, Maryland.
The dome of the original central building was constructed of wood, but was removed mn
1856 to be replaced by the present stupendous structure of cast iron, which was completed in
1865. The entire weight of iron used is 8,909,200 pounds.
The main building is three hundred and fifty-two feet four inches long in front and one
hundred and twenty-one feet six inches deep, with a portico one hundred and sixty feet wide,
of twenty-four colwmns on the east, and a projection of eighty-three feet on the west, em-
bracing a recessed portico of ten coupled columns. The extensions are placed at the north
and south ends of the main building, with connecting corridors forty-four feet long by fifty-six
feet wide, flanked by columns. Each extension is one hundred and forty-two feet eight inches
in front, by two hundred and thirty-eight feet ten inches deep, with porticcs of twenty-two
columns each on their eastern fronts, and with porticos of ten columns on their ends and on
their western fronts. The entire length of the building is seven hundred and fifty-one feet
four inches, and the. greatest depth, including porticos and steps, is three hundred and twenty-
four feet. The area covered by the entire building is one hundred and fifty-three thousand
one hundred and twelve square feet.
The dome is crowned by a bronze statue of Freedom, modeled by Crawford, which is nine-
teen feet six inches high, and which weighs 14,985 pounds. The height of the dome above
the base-line of the east front is two hundred and eighty-seven feet eleven inches; the height
from the top of the balustrade of the building is two hundred and seventeen feet eleven inches;
and the greatest diameter at the base is one hundred and thirty-five feet five inches.
The rotunda is ninety-five feet six inches in diameter, and its height from the floor to the
top of the canopy is one hundred and eighty feet three inches.
The Senate chamber is one hundred and twelve feet in length, by eighty-two feet in width,
and thirty feet in height. Its galleries will accommodate one thousand persons.
The Representatives’ Hall is one hundred ana thirty feet in length, by ninety-three feet in
width, and thirty feet in height. °
The Supreme Court room was occupied by the Senate until December, 1859, the court
having previously occupied the room beneath, now used as a law library.
The Library of Congress was burned by the British in 1814, and was partially destroyed by
an accidental fire in 1851. The present centre hall was finished in 1853, and the wing halls
were finished in 1867. :

pany them ; the | designates those having other ladies with them.
The streets and avenues of Washington are now numbered on the ‘* Philadelphia plan,” starting north,
south, east, and west from the base-lines, which run north and south, east and west, intersecting at the
Capitol. Thus, in the northwest section of the city, the houses on any street designated by a letter, or
on any avenue running east and west, which are between First and Second streets, are numbered between
one and two hundred ; those between Second and Third streets are numbered between two and three
hundred, and so forth. On the streets designated by numbers, or on any avenue running north and south
the houses between A and B streets are numbered between one and two hundred ; those between B an
C streets are numbered between two and three hundred, and so forth. This system of numbering enables
any one, with the aid of a map of the city, to determine the exact location of any house the number
and street of which are given.
