Washington, D.C. - named after one man, meticulously planned by another, a city whose design was to be "on that grand scale" and instill awe, highlighting a new capital's power. From swamp to city, we explore Washington's power, the good and the bad, with the help of those who have pulled its levers. We walk the presidential inauguration route and visit buildings that have left their mark. From the streets underfoot to the view from the top, from the Capitol chambers to the salons of Georgetown, Washington exudes power that must be experienced to understand.
