Capital to reopen Tariff Building as luxury hotel
The 161 year old Tariff Building in Washington will become a 172 room Kimpton hotel with a $32 million restoration aided by about $3.2 million in federal tax credits. The project aims to revive a deteriorating downtown block near the National Portrait Gallery and MCI Center as preservation funds and public history interest grow.
