  • Seward Square is a square and park maintained by the National Park Service located at the intersection of Pennsylvania Avenue and North Carolina Avenue in the Capitol Hill neighborhood of Southeast Washington, D.C. The square is bounded by 4th Street to the west and 6th Street to the east. North and south of the park are the respective westbound and eastbound lanes of Seward Square, SE. Because Pennsylvania and North Carolina Avenues intersect in the middle of the square, it divides the square into four unique smaller parks. The park is named after William Henry Seward, the United States Secretary of State under Presidents Abraham Lincoln and Andrew Johnson. Seward is noted for his part in the American purchase of Alaska from the Russian Empire in 1867. The purchase was ridiculed at the time and was colloquially known as "Seward's Folly". There is no statue of William Seward on the site of the park, however there is a statue of his adopted daughter, Olive Risley Seward located at a private residence at the corner of 6th Street and North Carolina Avenue, SE. The statue was sculpted in 1971 by John Cavanaugh. (en)
  • 苏厄德广场(Seward Square)是一个城市广场和公园,由美国国家公园管理局维护,位于华盛顿哥伦比亚特区东南区的国会山社区,宾夕法尼亚大道和北卡罗莱纳大道交汇处。广场西以4街为界,东到6街。因为宾夕法尼亚大道和北卡罗莱纳大道在广场中间交汇,广场被分成四个小公园。该公园得名于亚伯拉罕·林肯和安德鲁·约翰逊总统时期的美国国务卿威廉·亨利·苏厄德。苏厄德以在1867年从俄罗斯帝国购买阿拉斯加而著称。这次购买当时受人嘲笑,被称为 “苏厄德的愚蠢”。公园内并没有威廉·苏厄德的雕像,而在6街和北卡罗莱纳大道转角的私人住宅有他的养女奥利弗·里斯利·苏厄德的雕像(1971年)。 (zh)
