Information about Washington D.C.
Pierre L'Enfant, designer of the city, thought of it as the Capital
City. Jefferson referred to it as Federal Town. Washington, however,
considered this undignified, and instead used the name Federal City.
The initial plot of land authorized by the Constitution for the
seat of the US government was a 100-square mile area. The first
commissioners appointed to acquire the property for the new capital
and construct the first government buildings made the obvious choice
and named the city Washington. At the same time, they decided to
call the entire 100 square-mile area the District of Columbia. Congress
later went along with this decision through legislative references
to the area.
The city of Washington as designed by L'Enfant did not, of course,
fill the 100 square-mile area authorized by the Constitution for
the seat of government. The area also included the cities of Georgetown
(1751) and Alexandria (1749), which were already in existence. Congress
designated the rest of the 10-mile by 10-mile portion outside the
corporate limits of these three cities as the County of Alexandria,
in the section given by Virginia, and the County of Washington,
in the Maryland-ceded portion.
In 1846 Congress voted to give back to Virginia all the land that
state had given to the government in 1790 for creation of the District
of Columbia. This move returned about 32 square miles of territory
to Virginia. Residents of Alexandria and what is now Arlington County,
Virginia, thus lost District of Columbia residency and again became
Virginia citizens.
If all this sounds confusing, think of Congress trying to enact
legislation dealing with the local affairs of this area. Congress
tried to clarify the jurisdictional muddle when it established a
territorial form of government for the capital in 1871. It revoked
the charters of the cities of Washington and Georgetown and also
abolished a levy court for the County of Washington. All legal municipal
functions were given to the District of Columbia.
Then Congress changed its mind again and decided that Georgetown
and the County of Washington should be separate entities. In 1895,
Congress legally ended Georgetown's status as a separate city by
merging it with the City of Washington, yet this act said nothing
about the County of Washington. Technically, this Maryland-ceded
portion of the District of Columbia is still a part of that namesake
even though it operates as a separate identity. The slip-up, moreover,
has never been corrected.
So, today, a resident of the District of Columbia may be living
either in the old County of Washington or in the merged section
made up of L'Enfant's City of Washington and of Georgetown. Washington,
D.C., however, is a city in name only - a mapmaker's designation
and the established pseudonym for the District of Columbia.
