Best Old Post Office Pavilion Day Trips & Things to Do

This historic beautiful building with a 315-foot clock tower opened in 1899 was Washington D.C.'s post office until 1914. It was almost torn down twice during the Federal Triangle construction and was renovated three times. Today the Old Post Office Pavilion contains the United States Bells of Congress as well as many dining and shopping options. The property is currently under a 60-year lease with The Trump Organization to have a luxury hotel built.
