Washington DC – Penn Quarter: Willard InterContinental Washington – United States Court of Claims
states federal court

Image by wallyg
The United States Court of Claims held its first meeting at "Willard’s Hotel" on this site on May 11, 1855. The court was established to allow citizens to sue the U.S. Government.

In 1861, President Abraham Lincoln wrote of the court: "It is as much the duty of government to render prompt justice against itself, in favor of citizens, as it is to administer the same, between private individuals."

This memorial, commissioned by the U.S. Court of Federal Claims Bar Association, was placed on the southern wall of the Willard Hotel on October 25, 2006 on behalf of the United States Court of Federal Claims and the United States Court of Appeals for the federal Circuit, the successor courts to the Court of Claims, to commemorate its 150th Anniversary.

The Willard Hotel, at 1401 Pennsylvania Avenue, in its present 12-story Beaux Arts incarnation, was designed by famed hotel architect Henry Janeway Hardenbergh and opened in 1901. It is the last of a succession of hotels that have stood on this site since 1816, when Colonel John Tayloe III constructed six small houses and leased thm to Joshua Tennison, who named them Tennison’s Hotel. Over the next three decades, they would go by the name of Williamson’s Mansion Hotel, Fullers American House and the City Hotel.

In 1847, Tayloe’s son, Benjamin Ogle Tayloe, leased the properties to Henry Willard, who in 1950 combined the structures into one building, adding two additional stories, and calling the property Willard’s Hotel. The lease provided Willard the opportunity to purchase the property with cash at any time, during which the Civil War erupted, skyrocketing prices and devaluing paper currency. In the 1869 Supreme Court case, Willard v. Tayloe, the agreed upon purchase price was upheld, but Willard was required to instead pay in gold coin.
