Completed in 1855, the Seneca sandstone of the Smithsonian Castle here was described as lilac grey after being quarried and cut in Montgomery County, Maryland. This sandstones weathered over time to its rusty red color. A rickshaw tour of DC, at the Smithsonian Castle (1855). #SmithsonianCastle #SmithsonianInstitutionBuilding #pedicabtours #pedicabride #washingtonDCpedicab #dcpedicab #wheelthepeople #dcrickshawtour #nationalmalltour #dctours #dctour #DCtrip #WashingtonDCtrip #WashingtonDCtour #WashingtonDCtours #WashingtonDCtravel #WashingtonDCvacation #NationalMallTravel #WashingtonDCbusinessTrip #rickshaw #rickshawtour #rickshawtours #pedicab #pedicabtour #pedicablife (at Smithsonian Castle) https://www.instagram.com/p/CkDW7s0OSg5/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

A new museum? A 13 day public comment period window is now open for five different design concepts, depicted here, for a new east building addition to the Smithsonian’s National Air and Space Museum in Washington, DC. This upcoming museum building is planned to be completed in the next 3 years, opening in time for the sestercentennial of the United States in 2026. Gyo Obata’s (the architect of the main museum building) 1988 glass restaurant pavilion annex will soon be demolished to make way for the Jeff Bezos Learning Center, which will include the “New Shepard” aerospace craft (depicted in the photos below) in which Bezos made a suborbital space flight, just above the Karman Line, in 2021. Bezos stroked a $200,000,000.00 million dollar check to fund this upcoming museum building, along with a stipulation that, for a minimum of 50 years, Bezos’ name will be publicly displayed in multiple places around the entire museum complex, both inside, and also facing public streets on the outside of the building, and in advance of the completion of the new wing. The terms of the written agreement between Bezos and the Smithsonian Institution, do not include a morals clause, a provision that would have allowed the Smithsonian to terminate the naming rights if Bezos’s conduct and behavior brought disrepute to the institution. CBS Market Watch reporter Leslie Albrecht obtained a copy of the agreement with a public records request. If you spot any coverage of the public comment period on the designs in the news media, please consider bringing it to our attention.

This hat is perhaps a bit out of place “back east,” in Washington, DC, but, when you gotta work outside all day, and keep the DC sun and rain off, why not something in felt with a custom bash, complete with a homemade hat band? #hatband #hatbands #akubra #akubrahat #hat #customhatband #customhat #seeninDC #sunhat #rainhat (at Lincoln Memorial) https://www.instagram.com/p/CiNPFDXLyQR/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

There were actually two people riding in the rickshaw here as she had her baby laying down to rest in a shaded and ventilated baby carrier backpack. This was a short hop transportation ride on a blazing hot August day. We started at a metro station, and finished at the Lincoln Memorial. From there, she was actually hiking with her baby, across the Memorial bridge over to Virginia, and then several miles down the Mount Vernon Trail, a multi use pathway, south to old town Alexandria. #pedicab #pedicabtour #pedicabtours #pedicabride #washingtonDCpedicab #dcpedicab #wheelthepeople #dcrickshawtour #nationalmalltour #dctours #dctour #DCtrip #WashingtonDCtrip #WashingtonDCtour #WashingtonDCtours #WashingtonDCtravel #WashingtonDCvacation #NationalMallTravel #rickshaw #rickshawtour #rickshawtours #pedicab #pedicabtour #pedicablife (at Lincoln Memorial) https://www.instagram.com/p/ChR8lCeL7so/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
