National Park Seminary, Practice House, Linden Lane, northwest corner of Power Plant Building, Silver Spring, Montgomery County, MD
Summary
Significance: The Practice House is a small component of the campus grounds, but its large neoclassical portico is a prominent eye-catcher. It reflects Ament's obsession with Beaux-Arts detailing and his often haphazard means of incorporating it on the campus.
