How it started. ➡️ How it's going. This black and white photo was taken in the early construction days of our headquarters in Washington, D.C. The building is dedicated to the heroic women of the Civil War and was declared a National Historic Landmark in 1965. Today, it is used by dedicated staff and is home to a collection of Red Cross history and artifacts. 🏛️ #ThrowbackThursday #Archives #RedCrossHistory #DCHistory #DC #VisitDC #RedCross
