Lost Washington: The Capital Garage on New York Avenue

This article was first published on September 3, 2009. It’s always fun to look back at architecture from the past, so we are sharing it again.
The Capital Garage was built in 1926 at the corner of New York Avenue and H Street (1320 New York Avenue). When it was built, it was the largest parking garage in the country. It was torn down in 1974. The same location is now occupied by the largely nondescript Daon Building.
