Old Post Office Pavilion and Tower

Once upon a time, the Old Post Office Pavilion (built in 1899) was in danger of being torn down. But thanks to forward thinking business men and women, today, it's one of D.C.'s premiere shopping and entertainment destinations. Great restaurants feature cuisine from around the world. Boutiques and stores offer unparalleled shopping. Located in the heart of the district's downtown between the White House and the U.S. Capitol, the Pavilion is popular with locals and visitors alike. Your shopping day will likely be brightened even more by live music. Whether its professional musicians or local high school bands, there's usually music in the air at the Old Post Office Pavilion.
