General Federation of Women's Clubs Headquarters, National Historic Landmark mansion in Dupont Circle, Washington, D.C., United States.

The Renaissance Revival masonry structure features four stories with elongated windows, iron marquee entrance, and distinctive polygonal and rectangular bays on each side.

Built in 1875 by Rear Admiral William Radford, the mansion became headquarters of the General Federation of Women's Clubs in 1922 through collective purchase.

The headquarters displays rotating exhibits of art, photographs, and artifacts that document the federation's involvement in social reform and community service.

The building houses administrative offices, the Women's History and Resource Center, and provides guided tours of historical rooms by appointment.

The structure contains a narrow room above the former carriageway, known as the spite room, built in 1884 by owners Thaddeus and Augusta Markley.

Location: Washington, D.C.
