United State Supreme Court Building
A brief explanation of its location:
The Supreme Court, was initially to be situated at current day
Judiciary Square. L'Enfant didn't have as clear an understanding of
the role of the Court under the Constitution as he did of the
President and the Congress. His suggested placement for the Court was
still along the "power corridor" on a hill, between the
executive and legislative buildings, where the court could
symbolically "oversee" the avenue and the other two branches
of government. The Court's role wasn't fully defined until the early
1800's under Chief Justice Marshall and the original location was
never developed as the site of the new Federal Court. For many years,
the Supreme Court was located on the lower floors of the Capitol. It
wasn't until the 1920's that a new Supreme Court building was erected
on the site where it sits today. The building's grandeur and size
compensate for the fact that it is not located directly on the
"power corridor."

I love the image- it stands for the institution of ultimate justice and also reminds us that politics should not be a part of the court- as the supreme court stands for justice for all. I would like to use the image of my web site Houston 18 Wheeler Accident Lawyer

Beautiful photo. I am a criminal defense attorney. I would like to use your photo for the appellate law section of my website. www.ca-criminal-defense.com Our local appellate court is in the Reagan Office Building. While it is a beautiful building, it is not what most people picture when they think of an appellate court.
