Of course.....the whole watergate hotel complex is just a hop, skip and jump down Virginia ave....from Thompsons boat house and the House of Sweden....the last two are but a stones throw from each other......which is why i guess the grad student....Virginia is casting runes.....maybe it is publish and perish.....as we dare u to print such and such a thing......print and die.....

Building[edit]

The building was designed by the Swedish architects Gert Wingårdh and Tomas Hansen, with VOA Associates in Washington DC as architect of record. It consists of five floors with a total surface of 7,500 m². The front of the building is made of glass. Construction began in August 2004 and was completed in the summer of 2006. The embassy moved into the building at the beginning of August 2006. Previously the embassy was housed in rented space, first at Watergate 600, and later at 1501 M Street NW.
