An Amazing View! The building itself is old and historic and definitely worth a stop. It has just been purchased by Donald Trump and will be turned into a hotel. Construction is planned to start next year. However, the clock tower will remain open for tours even after the building is converted into a hotel. With tours of the Washington... More

This is a great place to get an arial view of Washington, DC since the Washington Monument is currently closed. It's free to go up and tower so be sure to do so! It's a little difficult to take pictures due to wire and plexiglass on the top of the tower, but the views are great. There is a mall-type... More

Beautiful place, lots of people, many food options, few touristy stores, but the best was the tower. Take the elevators to the top..it's worthed, the view of Washington is breathtaking.

With the Washington Monument being closed, this is a good substitute to get panoramic views over the city. Unfortunately the plexiglass and wire surrounding the top of the tower make it difficult to take decent photographs.

Havent been here in years, but have always liked this place. THe architecture of the outside is very cool. Inside is just mostly shops, but nice to visit. Make it part of many places to see while in the area. Doesnt take long to check it out.

Once inside, we had snacks and enjoyed looking at the beautiful architecture before riding the glass elevator to the bell tower atop the building. Because of the bells and... More

The Old Post Office Tower in on Pennsylvania Avenue, yet is off most tourists' "to do" list. Put it on. Especially with the Washington Monument being closed, this place will provide you gorgeous views of central Washington, DC. It's a great visit regardless. The architecture is worth having a look by itself - Donald Trump's company recently won a bid... More
