We started a full day of sightseeing with a tour of Ford's Theatre, sight of the Lincoln assasination. I did not realize Ford's is still a working, functioning theatre with live shows.
As you look at the pictures, note that in 1865 the theatre (while still the same size) housed three times as many seats. The seats were smaller and shoved closer together (I guess the people were smaller too!).
Next up - Smithsonian museums on the Mall.
