Figure A--Decatur's home was built in 1819 in the Lafayette Square section of Washington, directly across from the White House.
Figure B--Latrobe created what many thought was the finest entryway in town for Decatur's home. The architect replicated a Senate hallway in Decatur's vestibule that also featured a flattened dome and a sweeping circular staircase.
Figure C--The formal rooms were located on the second floor, where Decatur hosted lavish parties for Washington society. The home also includes formal and family parlors and the dining room in which gifts from an adoring nation are displayed.
