This had been a women's school (junior college, more or less) and was commandeered by the army during WW II; the color pictures could certainly come from there. I was never inside any of them--my acquaintance with it came from running and driving through it. I thought that the annex continued some operations later than 1990--it seems to me that my brother went to a gym there in the mid-1990s, and that the commissary continued to operate. Some of it now is being developed. I suppose it must be noisy, as being close to the Washington Beltway and to railroad tracks that carry about two trains per hour. But it does have a lovely, wooded setting, with a path and a road on one side down to Rock Creek.
