Watergate Peaks
Watergate Peaks celebrates the rhythm and symmetry of the balconies adorning the Watergate Hotel, in Washington, DC.
A part of the Watergate Complex, the Watergate Hotel opened in 1967, and soon became a landmark known for luxurious living, with an international flair. Developed by SGI, an Italian company backed by Vatican money, the complex was designed by architect Luigi Moretti, a favorite of Mussolini's who was jailed briefly during World War II.
On June 16, 1972, four men rented two rooms at the Watergate Hotel and dined on lobster in the hotel restaurant. That night, joined by a fifth man, they broke into the Democratic National Committee headquarters on the sixth floor of the Watergate office building adjacent to the hotel, sparking the Watergate Scandal and the downfall of U.S. President Richard Nixon.
