  • Peace Trail on the National Mall
    PEACE TRAIL ON THE NATIONAL MALL Making Peace Possible Learn more about the United States Institute of Peace at www.usip.org PEACE TRAIL ON THE NATIONAL MALL Introduction The northwest corner of the National Mall could be considered the “War and Peace Corner” of our nation’s capital. It is home to this country’s most famous veterans memorials, which draw tens of millions of visitors each year. It is also home to the headquarters of the United States Institute of Peace (USIP), and to other symbols and sites with peace themes, which, while generally less prominent, offer an important and complementary narrative. The following Peace Trail on the National Mall is the result of a collaboration between USIP and colleagues at the Guild of Professional Tour Guides of Washington, D.C. and at the National Park Service. Anchored at USIP and tracing a path to a dozen other key sites in the vicinity, it brings a “peace lens” to the experience of visiting the National Mall. It may be used as a self-guided walking tour or a reference guide, elevating stories of key figures, institutions, and moments in history that demonstrate America’s enduring commitment to peace. 1 M HA EDWARD R MURROW H ST NW 66 Decatur House Von Steuben PARK LAFAYETTE Kosciuszko NEW US Court of George New Executive PARK Appeals and Washington H ST NW Office Bldg Baruch Bench Jackson US Court University of Claims Renwick Gallery 24TH ST NW Rochambeau Treasury Annex Lafayette Juarez Blair-Lee House Closed roads G ST NW Eisenhower 14TH ST NW Executive Department Office of the F ST NW

It was suggested this history be completed in time for our fortieth anniversary. The following gentle- men were elected by the Society to serve on this Committee Clarence S. Ongman, Chairman, Sven Strid, Carl Iljalmar Lundquist, and Albin G. Witting. As Mr. Witting resides in Colorado it was impossible for him to take any active part in the work. Mr. Lundquist, being Secretary of the Chicago branch of the Swedish Centennial Celebration, has been un- able to work with us, so the labor has fallen upon the Chair- man and Mr. Strid. After some months Mr. Eric Blomquist, our former librarian, and Mr. Gustaf Palm, our Secretary, have been of great help. I said the labor has fallen on Strid and j^our Chairman, yes, it has been labor, but has been in- tensely interesting.
