Old Brick Capitol Fades as Supreme Court Moves to New Home
The Old Brick Capitol on Maryland Avenue in Washington is being torn down to make way for the National Judiciary’s new home. Its 113 year history spans from the War of 1812 to serving as a detention site in the Civil War and later as a boarding house and feminist headquarters.
