Georgetown, Washington DC
Sensing Prowell’s keen interest in early American history, the homeowner passed on such anecdotal asides as the house across the street was where John and Abigail lived while waiting for the plaster to dry in the White House, and the house on the corner where Lincoln’s body was embalmed, and the house on the adjacent block where JFK spent his Inaugural night with his mistress! So we see how the Colonial Williamsburg wood gate design has it’s place in American history.
