Built to serve Civil War sailors, the Old Naval Hospital eventually became a Hospital Corps training school, then an old solider’s home, and then office space for the D.C. government.

Today, Hill Center is home to lectures, culinary and cultural events, private events, and outstanding artwork. The campus offers a historic venue for private events with modern amenities, including beautifully restored indoor rooms and lush garden areas—ideal for both small gatherings and larger functions.
