From the National Mall to the National Gallery of Art, visitors remember Washington, DC for its iconic sights. The same can be said for meetings-goers attending events in DC.
Plan an engagement on the Newseum’s terrace, and attendees will see breathtaking views of the U.S. Capitol Building. The Top of the Hay, the crown of the historic Hay-Adams Hotel, provides a panorama of the White House and the Washington Monument.
A DC institution, museums also serve as favored settings for events, too - especially after dark. The Corcoran Gallery of Art and the National Portrait Gallery offer their spaces for private functions. With its array of air and spacecraft installations, the National Air and Space Museum is a favorite among many groups.
There’s always something new to explore in the eclectic neighborhoods throughout the city, too, from dining and
nightlife on 14th Street to baseball and brews in the Capitol Riverfront neighborhood.
What's more, Washington, DC is in the midst of several new development projects and renovations, bringing a $9 billion makeover to the nation’s capital. The city has seen a cascade of new restaurants open in 2015, and many projects near the Walter E. Washington Convention Center are transforming downtown DC.
