An exploration of buildings and public spaces that no longer exist in Washington, D.C., including the Republic Theater on U Street and the Krazy Kat Club near Thomas Circle.Lost Washington, D.C. looks at the cherished places in the city that time, progress and fashion have swept aside. The Lost series from Pavilion Books looks back in loving detail at many of the things that have helped create a citys unique identity that have since disappeared; the streetcars, the shops, the parks, the churches, the amusement parks, the communities, even the annual parades. It looks at the landmark buildings that failed to be preserved, the hotels that could not be adapted and fell to the wrecking ball and the novelty buildings such as the General Noble Redwood Treehouse which stood on the Mall from 1894 to 1932. Lost buiildings include the Washington Arsenal and Washinton Penitentiary where the Lincoln conspirators were hanged. The distinctive Center Market building which was razed along with Arcade, Liberty and Dutch Markets. Many theaters have gone; Victorian (Albaugh's Opera House) and Art Deco (Translux), but the grandiose Fox entrance remains to front a modern office block. Other sites include: Hoover Aiport, the Matthew Brady and L.C. Handy studios, the Ebbit House Hotel, commerce on the Chesapeake and Ohio Cabal, Baltimore and Portomac Railroad Station, faux castles such as Henderson's and Stewart's, the Corcoran School of Art and many Victorian vistas of Washingtom from the top of the Capitol and Washington Monument.
