In this episode of DomoNaut, I sit down with the Executive Vice President and CEO of Meridian International Center to talk about both the White-Meyer and Meridian Houses. Both were built by John Russell Pope, who also built the Jefferson Memorial and the National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C.
Meridian House is full of gorgeous Beaux-Arts details, a linden garden, and a thorough history of political enrichment in our nation's capital.
