The Watergate Complex in D.C.’s Foggy Bottom neighborhood is renowned for two major contributions to 20th-century history—its role in the 1972 political scandal that reshaped American democracy and its status as a pioneering example of modern architecture and urban planning.

- St. Stephen Martyr Catholic Church (1961)
- Potomac Plaza Co-op (1956)
- Columbia Plaza (1964)
- Plus an exploration of the Watergate Complex
An Exclusive Tour of “Watergate Portraits”
The walk will conclude with an exclusive visit to the pop-up exhibit “Watergate Portraits,” an experience produced by the future Watergate Museum.
