English: Prospect House is located at 3508 Prospect Street NW in the Georgetown neighborhood of Washington, D.C. It was built by James Lingan in 1788 and designed by William Thornton. Previous owners include Secretary James Forrestal and Richard Thurmond Chatham. The house is listed on the National Register of Historic Places and the District of Columbia Inventory of Historic Sites. It is also a contributing property to the Georgetown Historic District. This is one of the few freestanding, late eighteenth century mansions remaining in the western part of Georgetown. Predating the establishment of the nearby Federal City,, it has been occupied from the time of its erection by several prominent families. The name comes from the views made possible by its setting on a hill above the Potomac River.
