Clara Barton House
Dream Builders : Episode DRB-1001 -- More Projects » Clara Barton moved into her Glen Echo home February 28, 1897. Vacating the property she rented in Washington, D.C. since 1892 required packing and transporting over 30 wagon loads of supplies. Until her death, it would also house the American Red Cross. The National Park Service has restored eleven rooms, including the Red Cross offices, parlors and Miss Barton's bedroom. Visitors to the Clara Barton National Historic Site can gain a sense of how Miss Barton lived and worked surrounded by all that went into her life's work.
