Do you know where Butler Heights is (was)? There’s a tiny Butler St. SE today, very close to Frederick Douglass’ old home. This is an advertisement that we found in the Washington Herald from May 13th, 1916.

What steel plant is that arrow pointing to?
Answering my own question: Firth-Sterling, apparently on the site of Bolling AFB today.
