So much history here in Virginia. This is Woodlawn. George Washington gave this part of Mount Vernon to his nephew and step-granddaughter, Lawrence and Eleanor Lewis, in 1799. Dr. William Thornton, architect of the U.S. Capitol designed Woodlawn. Construction of the Federal-style house occurred between 1800 and 1805.
