Description

Description: The Mall, covered with trees, from the Old Agriculture Building showing the Smithsonian Institution Building, the Arts and Industries Building, the United States Capitol Building, and the General Noble Redwood Tree House, a 2,000 year-old giant sequoia on the Agriculture Building grounds. The tree house was originally built as part of the Government exhibit at the 1893 World's Colombian Exposition in Chicago. It was moved to the grounds of the Agriculture Building in 1894 and remained there until 1932. The tree house was named for John Willock Noble, secretary of the interior from 1889 to 1893.
