Metropolitan Hotel (Washington, D.C.)	75,668,332		The Metropolitan Hotel at Pennsylvania Avenue and Sixth Street NW in Washington, D.C. was a major hotel of the capital city of the United States from 1863 to 1935. Built in 1850 by the heirs of Jesse Brown, the Metropolitan was "brick with marble veneer, originally five stories, approx[imately] twenty bays." In its day it was home "to many distinguished congressmen and visitors." The Metropolitan had a reputation as the hotel of politicians from the Southern states.
Metropolitan Hotel (Washington, D.C.)	75,668,332	History	The history of the hotel that stood on Pennsylvania between Sixth and Seventh began with a land purchase in 1802. The first owner constructed Woodward's Centre Tavern and arranged to have water piped to the building from a nearby spring. Successive owner-operators of taverns on the block included Solomon Meyer, Robert Underwood, Nicholas L. Queen, George W. Lindsay, John Davis, and David McKeowin, all of whom built or linked extant structures in various combinations. "The Star-Spangled Banner" was supposedly sung for the first time ever at this tavern in December 1814 "during a dinner given by the citizens of the district to the Secretary of the Navy, William Jones, who was resigning his office." As Davis' Hotel it was the site of an inaugural ball for James Monroe.
Metropolitan Hotel (Washington, D.C.)	75,668,332	History	Finally, in 1821, it was purchased by Jesse Brown "who had been for several years the proprietor of the City Hotel in nearby Alexandria. Brown called his Washington enterprise the Indian Queen Tavern—the name having probably been suggested from a hotel by the same name once kept by David Arrell on Market street in nearby Alexandria." The Indian Queen had a large painted wooden carving of a stylized Native American woman as well a carved wooden sign that bore the motto "good entertainment for man and beast." In the tavern era, "on a tall pole set at the footwalk were a bell and a rope. When meals were ready in the 'ordinary' a slave rang the bell and it could be heard along the avenue from Four and a Half to Ninth Street." Pushmataha reportedly stayed at the hotel when visiting Washington for treaty negotiations, "as did many Indian delegations." The Indian Queen tavern on the same site as the later Metropolitan was "the traffic centre of the old stage-coach days...From the courtyard in front of the old building the Baltimore and Philadelphia coaches started each morning, and thrice a week a coach left for the old National road line to Frederick, Cumberland and Pittsburg."
Metropolitan Hotel (Washington, D.C.)	75,668,332	History	The Indian Queen Tavern was enlarged and became Brown's Indian Queen Hotel. John Tyler was sworn in as president at the Indian Queen. Charles Dickens visited on his American tour and mentioned the Indian Queen in Martin Chuzzlewitt. Benjamin Perley Poore includes an extended description of the Indian Queen in his memoirs of life in 19th-century Washington, published 1887. He recalled Jesse Brown preparing a "foaming eggnog" for patriotic holidays such as the Fourth of July and Washington's Birthday in a punch bowl that had allegedly belonged to George Washington .
Metropolitan Hotel (Washington, D.C.)	75,668,332	History	Jesse Brown died in 1847, at age 74, and his sons Tillotson P. Brown and Marshall Brown took over. The old building was demolished in 1850. The cornerstone of the new Brown's Hotel was laid in May 1851, with construction projected to be completed "October next." Items deposited in the time capsule in the cornerstone included grains of gold brought by John Walker from California, a copy of the Declaration of Independence and "Rev. C. M. Butler's Thanksgiving Sermon," and "pennies by the old colored servants, put in for ' good luck,' and to 'the memory of their old master.'" The architect of the new building was John Haviland. The marble of Brown's Marble Hotel came from Maryland and/or was supposedly left over from the construction of the U.S. Capitol building. A new proprietor began leasing the building in 1862 and changed the name from Brown's Hotel to the Metropolitan Hotel. The Brown family sold out entirely in 1865. The hotel had a "broad, low ceiled lobby" that was usually "filled with broad-hatted frock-coated men" and reminded people more or "Memphis or New Orleans than of the Northern cities. The bar was always famous for its juleps, toddies, and sherry cobblers."
Metropolitan Hotel (Washington, D.C.)	75,668,332	History	As of 1884, the old tavern building was "yet a part of the back of the hotel."
Metropolitan Hotel (Washington, D.C.)	75,668,332	History	The building was razed in 1933. Some of the bricks were repurposed in the construction of a Georgian-style home on Massachusetts Avenue. The lot was then used as a bus station. As of the 1960s, the location was Barney's restaurant and "a two-story, two-bay fragment from the southwest corner now survives, first floor altered, second floor retains original Greek Revival marble trim." The remaining fragment was demolished in 1984.

Ending more speculation that he would run for Board of Control that year, Hamilton ran for re-election again in the 1937 election. One thing holding him back was the prohibition of civil servants running for the board. He was re-elected, winning 1,696 votes, 399 votes behind McCann. Hamilton ran for re-election again in the 1938 election. He was re-elected after finishing second again winning roughly 2,200 votes, about 500 behind McCann.

Ottawans voted to lengthen council terms to two years in the 1939 election, meaning Hamilton's victory in 1940 would mean serving for both the 1941 and 1942 calendar years. Following the election, Hamilton continued his chairmanship of the Civic Industrial and Publicity Committee until asking to be removed as chair in August 1941. In the 1942 election, Hamilton was re-elected, winning 2,100 votes, again finishing second behind McCann by 550 votes. Two years later, he was re-elected again in the 1944 election, winning 1,577 votes, 613 votes behind McCann.

In 1951, Hamilton was made chairman of the Smoke Abatement Committee, which was charged with cutting down smoke emissions in the city.

Wilbert Hamilton

75,668,294

Alderman

Following the annexation of parts of Nepean Township and Gloucester Township, the city council had ballooned in size, prompting voters to back a plebiscite to reduce the size of city council for the 1952 municipal election. This caused a new ward map to be drawn, and Hamilton was drawn into the new Ward 6 (ward names were dropped for the next few elections). Hamilton was elected in the new ward with 4,770 votes, topping the poll. His Dalhousie seat mate McAuley was also re-elected. Alderman Charles Parker who had represented neighbouring Wellington Ward finished third. With his election, Hamilton became the dean of the council.

During the 1953–54 council, Hamilton served as chairman of the Tourist and Convention committee, was vice president of the Central Canada Exhibition Association (CCEA), and chairman of the printing committee. He considered running for mayor of Ottawa in the 1954 election, but dropped out in October, stating that the only way he could beat incumbent Charlotte Whitton was in a one on one race. However, Whitton already faced two credible opponents in David Luther Burgess, a prominent member of the Royal Canadian Legion and former mayor E. A. Bourque, so Hamilton stayed out. On November 15, 1954, he announced he would be running for re-election in Ward 6. In addition to possibly running for mayor, he had been rumoured to run for board of control, but declined, citing public servant regulations. On election day, Hamilton was re-elected, topping the poll in Ward 6, winning 4,021 votes, just 20 more than McAulay. Parker ran again, finishing third.

When running for the Board, he was noted as an "advocate of public ownership of public utilities" due to his support for the establishment of the Ottawa Hydro Commission. Hamilton was successful in his election bid, winning 24,167 votes, placing third on the four seat Board, almost 6,000 votes behind the leading candidate, Paul Tardif.

On November 14, 1958, he announced that he would run for re-election to the Board for the 1958 election. On election day, he won 28,763 votes, good enough for fourth place, the last spot on the board. He was roughly 4,600 votes behind Tardif, who topped the poll once again. Also that year, Hamilton was rumoured to be in the consideration to become the Queen's Printer, a position which had become vacant.

Metropolitan Hotel (Washington, D.C.)

75,668,332

The Metropolitan Hotel at Pennsylvania Avenue and Sixth Street NW in Washington, D.C. was a major hotel of the capital city of the United States from 1863 to 1935. Built in 1850 by the heirs of Jesse Brown, the Metropolitan was "brick with marble veneer, originally five stories, approx[imately] twenty bays." In its day it was home "to many distinguished congressmen and visitors." The Metropolitan had a reputation as the hotel of politicians from the Southern states.

Metropolitan Hotel (Washington, D.C.)

75,668,332

History

The history of the hotel that stood on Pennsylvania between Sixth and Seventh began with a land purchase in 1802. The first owner constructed Woodward's Centre Tavern and arranged to have water piped to the building from a nearby spring. Successive owner-operators of taverns on the block included Solomon Meyer, Robert Underwood, Nicholas L. Queen, George W. Lindsay, John Davis, and David McKeowin, all of whom built or linked extant structures in various combinations. "The Star-Spangled Banner" was supposedly sung for the first time ever at this tavern in December 1814 "during a dinner given by the citizens of the district to the Secretary of the Navy, William Jones, who was resigning his office." As Davis' Hotel it was the site of an inaugural ball for James Monroe.

Metropolitan Hotel (Washington, D.C.)

75,668,332

History

Finally, in 1821, it was purchased by Jesse Brown "who had been for several years the proprietor of the City Hotel in nearby Alexandria. Brown called his Washington enterprise the Indian Queen Tavern—the name having probably been suggested from a hotel by the same name once kept by David Arrell on Market street in nearby Alexandria." The Indian Queen had a large painted wooden carving of a stylized Native American woman as well a carved wooden sign that bore the motto "good entertainment for man and beast." In the tavern era, "on a tall pole set at the footwalk were a bell and a rope. When meals were ready in the 'ordinary' a slave rang the bell and it could be heard along the avenue from Four and a Half to Ninth Street." Pushmataha reportedly stayed at the hotel when visiting Washington for treaty negotiations, "as did many Indian delegations." The Indian Queen tavern on the same site as the later Metropolitan was "the traffic centre of the old stage-coach days...From the courtyard in front of the old building the Baltimore and Philadelphia coaches started each morning, and thrice a week a coach left for the old National road line to Frederick, Cumberland and Pittsburg."

Metropolitan Hotel (Washington, D.C.)

75,668,332

History

The Indian Queen Tavern was enlarged and became Brown's Indian Queen Hotel. John Tyler was sworn in as president at the Indian Queen. Charles Dickens visited on his American tour and mentioned the Indian Queen in Martin Chuzzlewitt. Benjamin Perley Poore includes an extended description of the Indian Queen in his memoirs of life in 19th-century Washington, published 1887. He recalled Jesse Brown preparing a "foaming eggnog" for patriotic holidays such as the Fourth of July and Washington's Birthday in a punch bowl that had allegedly belonged to George Washington .

Metropolitan Hotel (Washington, D.C.)

75,668,332

History

Jesse Brown died in 1847, at age 74, and his sons Tillotson P. Brown and Marshall Brown took over. The old building was demolished in 1850. The cornerstone of the new Brown's Hotel was laid in May 1851, with construction projected to be completed "October next." Items deposited in the time capsule in the cornerstone included grains of gold brought by John Walker from California, a copy of the Declaration of Independence and "Rev. C. M. Butler's Thanksgiving Sermon," and "pennies by the old colored servants, put in for ' good luck,' and to 'the memory of their old master.'" The architect of the new building was John Haviland. The marble of Brown's Marble Hotel came from Maryland and/or was supposedly left over from the construction of the U.S. Capitol building. A new proprietor began leasing the building in 1862 and changed the name from Brown's Hotel to the Metropolitan Hotel. The Brown family sold out entirely in 1865. The hotel had a "broad, low ceiled lobby" that was usually "filled with broad-hatted frock-coated men" and reminded people more or "Memphis or New Orleans than of the Northern cities. The bar was always famous for its juleps, toddies, and sherry cobblers."

History

As of 1884, the old tavern building was "yet a part of the back of the hotel."

Metropolitan Hotel (Washington, D.C.)

75,668,332

History

The building was razed in 1933. Some of the bricks were repurposed in the construction of a Georgian-style home on Massachusetts Avenue. The lot was then used as a bus station. As of the 1960s, the location was Barney's restaurant and "a two-story, two-bay fragment from the southwest corner now survives, first floor altered, second floor retains original Greek Revival marble trim." The remaining fragment was demolished in 1984.
