Seeing Washington With the Cross-Eyed World
A long, lively tour narrative describes Sunday excursionists arriving at Washington from New York area via rail to visit the capital. The piece focuses on the cross eyed world of sightseers aboard buses and in the station, their reactions, humorous asides, and the first spring crowds viewing the Capitol, Lincoln Memorial, Washington Monument, and other sites. It highlights the charm and chaos of the trip, the novelty of landmarks, and odd favorite sights like the Capitol hotel dungeon and Thomas Circle’s Japanese architectural apartments.
