Fraser Mansion, Beaux-Arts mansion in Dupont Circle, United States.
The Fraser Mansion at 1701 20th Street Northwest features red brick walls, pink granite elements, and a three-story structure with two basement levels.
Built in 1890 for New York merchant George Fraser at a cost of $75,000, the mansion later became the residence of Pennsylvania Congressman Joseph Thropp in 1901.
The building transformed from a private residence to the Parrot Tea Room in 1932, then operated as multiple restaurants before becoming a Church of Scientology facility.
The National Affairs Office of the Church of Scientology operates in this building, which received recognition on the National Register of Historic Places in 1975.
The mansion underwent exterior modifications during the Thropp family ownership, including the enlargement of dormer windows and structural adaptations for commercial purposes.
