Description: Washington, D.C. - Four Seasons Hotel - 1984: The Four Seasons Hotel Washington, DC is a luxury hotel located at 2800 Pennsylvania Avenue NW in Washington, D.C. The 222-room, $21.726 million Four Seasons hotel was designed by architect David Childs of the firm Skidmore, Owings & Merrill. At its opening in 1979, The Washington Post architectural critic Wolf Von Eckardt said the building featured "skillful urban design". But it was marred by poorly laid brick and "phony" concrete window lintels painted to look like brownstone. He called Childs' idea of making the entrance a campanile "charming", but declared Childs' idea of making the campanile a stand-alone tower "insipid". The hotel's interiors were designed by Frank Nicholson. Rooms featured a great deal of marble and plush carpeting. The furniture was imitation Chippendale, public spaces and guest room features occasionally mimicked Chinese and Japanese artistry, and the color scheme of the hotel was earth tones. There was no hotel lobby. Rather, a concierge behind a standing desk greeted guests. This Photochromatic postcard, mailed in 1984, is in good condition, but there is some franking in the image.
