You're really guilting me into getting out and taking some pics of DC (Metro) myself. I recall many of those shot Cirrus, and it's a pleasure to see them again. Thanks.

No. As far as I know that's just a random office building.

This is the World Bank. In this picture it's the one with the curved roof closer to the foreground.

I always wondered what it must look like from Ballston to Rosslyn. Now I know. Thanks.
