 ewal efforts ushered in a &ldquo\;Brutalist&rdquo\; phenomenon that reshap
 ed the nation&rsquo\;s capital in the mid-20th century. Many high-profile 
 public buildings were designed and constructed with exposed structural ele

 ral significance.Capital Brutalism explores the history\, current state\, 
 and future of seven polarizing buildings and the WMATA Metro system in Was
