History greets you with every step. The National Park Seminary originated in 1887 as a resort named Ye Forest Inne, designed by T.F. Shneider, architect for the famed Cairo Hotel building in Dupont Circle (and impetus for DCs Height of Buildings Act of 1910). After the resort venture failed, the site was used as a school for young women, the National Park Seminary - at which time some of the more unique structures were added to the property, including the pagoda, the windmill, and even a castle! During the Second World War, the army purchased the land and used it as the Forest Glen Annex of Walter Reed Hospital.
