See 220 years of Capitol Hill growth in 3 minutes

July 19, 2013

In honor (we guess?) of 220 years of Capitol Hill construction, the Architect of the Capitol has put together this three-minute computer animated video, which takes the viewer on a soaring tour around the National Mall as Washington, D.C.’s most iconic landmarks are built and tweaked. Check it out below or check out the version with the “Game of Thrones” theme song playing in the background.
