Just goes to show you what a call 12 years ago asking for some pro bono work can lead to! As of today this little synagogue that could has been relocated and is poised to become an integral part of the SmithGroup designed Capital Jewish Museum! #cjm #smithgroup #dcpreservation

The Museum’s collection includes this plaster model used as an aid in carving a gargoyle of the Greek god Pan for the Washington National Cathedral. The gargoyle, designed by Frederick Hart and carved by Malcolm Harlow, is on the @WNCathedral West Front. #40artifacts #40years

Watching the #Oscars this weekend? Raise a glass to Marjorie Hunt on the 35th anniversary of her Oscar win for "The Stonecarvers." Hunt was honored with a angel on the northwest tower; she's holding her Oscar statue, naturally.

In the early 1960s, Eero Saarinen designed The Deere & Company Administrative Center that would serve as the headquarters for @JohnDeere. It also established a legacy for changing the face of American buildings as corporate identity symbols. bit.ly/2BRQJ6U
