About
On this adults-only walking tour, discover how a neighborhood once nicknamed Murder Bay transformed into the nerve center of American power. From 19th-century brothels to Cold War espionage, political cover-ups to presidential indiscretions, this is the side of D.C. that rarely makes it into textbooks.
You’ll explore the streets where corruption, vice, ambition, and power collided — and learn how these hidden stories helped shape the nation’s capital as we know it today.
