Page 27: PLAN of the City intended for the Permanent SEAT of the Government of the UNITED STATES Projected agreeable to the direction of the PRESIDENT of the UNITED STATES in pursuance of an ACT of CONGRESS posted the sixteenth day of July, MDCCXC, “establishing the Permanent Seat on the bank of the Potowmac” By Peter Charles L’Enfant. OBSERVATIONS explanatory of the PLAN. I. The positions for the different Grand Edifices and for the several Grand Squares or Areas of different shapes as they are laid down were first determined on the most advantageous ground commanding the most extensive prospects, and the better susceptible of such improvements as the various intents of the several objects may require. II. Lines or Avenues of direct communication have been devised as connect the separate and most distinct objects with the principal, and to preserve through the whole a reciprocity of sight at the same time. Attention has been paid to the passing of those leading Avenues over the most favorable ground for prospect and convenience. III. North and South lines, intersected by others running due East and West, make the distribution of the City into Streets, Squares, etc., and those lines have been so combined as to meet at certain given points with those divergent Avenues so as to form on the spaces “first determined” the different Squares or Areas, which are all proportional in Magnitude to the number of Avenues leading to them. _Breadth of the Streets._
