Next door to Decatur House this townhouse offers changing history-related exhibits. Excellent exhibit on Blair House just closed on March 3, 2017.

Across the street from the White House, Blair House has been the President's Guest House since 1942. It is actually a complex of four formerly separate buildings: Blair House, Lee House, Peter Parker House, and 704 Jackson Place, former residences among the oldest in the District of Columbia. Closed to the public the complex is definitely worth a stop to admire the architecture when in the neighborhood.
