Notes
  • Significance: Main exemplifies the site's evolving history. It is a conglomeration of eight buildings with adjoining extensions and adaptations that were completed between 1887 and the 1940s. It is the core of the campus compound. In its original still legible form, the building is one of the few remaining nineteenth century resort hotels in the Washington area. It was designed by the well-known Washington architect, Thomas Franklin Schneider. While many of Schneider inner-city rowhouses and apartment buildings are extant, the inn is a rare surviving example of his large-scale domestic and resort architecture. The varied and complex Queen Anne building design was intended to echo the diversity of forms and naturalistic features in the surrounding picturesque landscape.
