The Brodhead-Bell-Morton Mansion, also known as the Levi P. Morton House is an historic house, located at 1500 Rhode Island Avenue, Northwest, Washington, D.C., in the Logan Circle neighborhood. ==History== It was built in 1879, to the designs of architect John Fraser, and renovated in 1912 by architect John Russell Pope. The Beaux-Arts style building originally served as the private residence of John. T. Brodhead, and Jessie Willis Brodhead. Since 1939, the building has served as offices for the National Paint, Varnish, and Lacquer Association (now known as the American Coatings Association). Former occupants include Alexander Graham Bell and his wife Mabel Gardiner Hubbard, U.S. Vice President Levi P. Morton, the Embassy of Russia, and U.S. Secretary of State Elihu Root. 〔http://pdfhost.focus.nps.gov/docs/NRHP/Text/87001769.pdf〕 The building is listed on the National Register of Historic Places, and the District of Columbia Inventory of Historic Sites.〔http://www.h-net.org/~dclist/shpo.pdf〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Brodhead-Bell-Morton Mansion」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
