The Tower Clock tour (free) offers the better views of DC than the Washington Monument but with less lines and wait times. Check it out

This place used to be cool and then Trump bought it and broke it, like everything else he touches.

Only structure taller than capital building. Its actually a national park ! Take the free elevator up to the top and brethe in some history. Great place to eat a sack lunch on a lunch break. Must see.

Best Indian Food on the go, been eating here for years & the Samosas are great! They usually have summer concerts/live musical artist but it is a touris site.

Check out the tower for a free 360 degree view of DC . FYI - they close the tower during thunderstorms!

Cool place for decent eats in a hurry...beware the camera lady upfront...arhcitecture is awesome...loved the belt buckle stand! HTTR BAYBEE

Will be closed for the next few years to renovate to a hotel - observation deck will be closed but will reopen when hotel opens for visitors!

The shopping and dining is run down. They're closing and renovating soon. Only thing worth doing now is taking the elevator to the top!

Take the elevator to the top of the 315 ft clock tower for a 360 degree view of downtown DC

The view up here is next to none!!

TeamTRI Tip: one of the top views of DC from the tower. Take your camera and enjoy!

Rent bikes or take a tour with Bike and Roll (in the back of the building)!

Best view of the city and there's never any wait.

Indian delight is all vegan restaurant on the first floor

Chicken-En-Joy: reasonably priced and so worth it! Try the

Go up to the top of the Clock Tower while you can!

It's a great place to eat and to shop!

Come during the winter its usually less people to fight for seats with

The free self-guided tour of the Clock Tower is a great alternative to waiting hours to go up the Washington Monument .

Kind of a tourist trap, but the bagel place is the best joint around for cheap bagel sandwiches . Also a fan of the uttapam at the Indian place.

The pavillion food court feels like time forgot it and it is 100 degrees. Tower is great though

Great view of the district on the 12th floor - expensive food court and souvenir shops downstairs

There's airport style security here, so be prepared.

Built in 1891-99, using the design of architect Willoughby J Edbrooke.

The metal detector and security is annoying and unnecessary. The food court (except for Ben and Jerry's) is lackluster.

Have to go between 12-1pm during the week to hear live performances from local artist / musicians .

"Dining" is a bit of a stretch, banner out front. Just a mall in some interesting architecture .

Great place for lunch if you are working at IRS or EPA

Great view from the top

The Bagel Place is great. The cashier is super friendly !

The people who work here are ass hats and should be fired. Specially the security guys at door. Dicks.

City Electronic should be called City Electronic Rip-Off. Cheap quality merchandise; often breaks w/in the first hour after leaving the store. If you want to throw your money away, just give it to me.

Try the pork chop at Chick-en-Joy!

As of May 1, 2014, the Old Post Office is closed for renovations.

139 stairs or elevator ride?That is the question.

Good variety of food. Bathrooms were nasty.

Not many food options. Don't waste time going through security unless you want to go up in the tower.

Hosoi Sushi is my fav Japanese deli .

Bird of peace

Closed as of May 1st 2014

The Indian food so delicious.

Frozen yogurt smoothies shakes are bad. Go to Ben N Jerry's.

dont go to chocolate world!
