Senators Now A Slumber Salon Behind Capitol Doors
A hidden project on Capitol Hill funded by a 1956 plumbing repair appropriation creates six bed equipped cubicles in the old Senate office building basement. Capitol Architect J George Stewart built the slumber salon in one of Sen Paul Douglas offices amid a bid to replace Stewart with a qualified architect.
