View of Potomac River from Wharf
South of the mansion and down some stairs is the Wharf
that the Washington's used for trade. Much of this trade was with
Alexandria, Virginia, some 10 miles or so up river. This view of the
Potomac River is looking NE, toward Alexandria and the modern-day
Washington D. C.
