Description
Set within the 59-acre Cathedral Close of the Washington National Cathedral, the grounds were initially envisioned as a private garden by Frederick Law Olmsted, Jr. Landscape designers such as Florence Brown Bratenahl later expanded the grounds into a public space, which features native plants alongside flora referenced in Christian legends.
