Pierre "PeterCharles L'Enfant (French: [pjɛʁ ʃɑʁl lɑ̃fɑ̃]; August 2, 1754 – June 14, 1825) was a French-American artist, professor, and military engineer. In 1791, L'Enfant designed the baroque-styled plan for the development of Washington, D.C., after it was designated to become the capital of the United States following its relocation from Philadelphia. His work, known as the L'Enfant Plan,[1] inspired plans for other major world capitals, including BrasíliaNew Delhi, and Canberra. In the U.S., plans for the development of three major cities, DetroitIndianapolis, and Sacramento, were inspired from L'Enfant's plan for Washington, D.C.[A] [3]
