Significance: Square 347, in downtown Washington, D.C., contributes to the 19th century commercial character of the Pennsylvania Avenue National Historic Site. Located immediately west of Ford's Theater and one block north of Pennsylvania Avenue, this block contains a variety of structures ranging from mid-19th century vernacular rowhouses to early 20th century high-rise buildings. The Peterson House, the house where Abraham Lincoln died, is located on 10th Street on the eastern side of the block.
