REPORT OF THE COMMITTEE APPOINTED TO ASCERTAIN THE EXPENDITURES AND PROBABLE ESTIMATES IN RELATION TO THE PUBLIC BUILDINGS IN THE CITY OF WASHINGTON. A key report detailing construction progress for several prominent federal buildings in the growing city of Washington, D.C. The buildings include the "President's House and Square," "Wings of the Capitol," and "Centre of the Capitol." The text explains the progress in detail, while the folding table lays out a schedule of estimated costs on each building for the years up to 1813. Good evidence of federal intentions in the District of Columbia, until the War of 1812 intervened.
