Bygone DC takes a nostalgic look back at some Washington's most memorable venues: including Griffith Stadium, the baseball sporting ground where past U.S. presidents traditionally threw out the seasonal first pitch; and, the Capital Centre, the former home of the Washington Bullets and Washington Capitals; as well as performance venues for famed pop music acts. Also, popular movie palaces and revival theaters with architectural artistry, which soared to over 100 unique locations at their height, such as the Fox Theater, the Knickerbocker Theatre, and the Lincoln Theater. Along with music entertainment venues of all stripes, such as Crystal Caverns, Carr and Sparrow's Beaches, and the Watergate Music Barge (notably featured in the Cary Grant film Houseboat (1958)).
