About the Perry Belmont House:  

  • Formerly the Perry Belmont Mansion, it was started in 1906 and completed in 1909, at the then-extravagant cost of $1.5 million (about $40 million in 2020 dollars).  Perry and Jessie Belmont built the mansion for the specific purpose of entertaining not only notables of Washington, but also dignitaries from all over the world.  The building was only used during the Washington party season (about two months each year) and special events.  It was designed by Eugene Sanson, a famous French architect who had designed many grand homes and chateaus in Europe.  He was renowned for his use of light and space, and for his beautiful staircases.
