‘Living in L’Enfant’s dream’: A look at the Frenchman who designed DC and his original map from 1791
2 min readhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9M2glk8fKeA
Pierre “Peter” Charles L’Enfant’s name may sound familiar, at least from the SW D.C. metro station that bears his name. Born in Paris in 1754, L’Enfant was an artist and engineer by trade. He is best known for designing the city plan for Washington, D.C. But like many of life’s plans, this one did not go as expected. News4’s Jummy Olabanji and producer Teneille Gibson bring us more in this NBC4 digital original.
