Anexo:Rotondas en Washington, D.C.

Estatua de Winfield Scott en el centro de la rotonda Scott.

La disposición de las calles en Washington DC consiste principalmente en calle numeradas de norte a sur, y calles con nombre de letras seguidas por calles ordenadas alfabéticamente de este a oeste. Las avenidas toman el nombre de los 50 estados de los EEUU y cruzan la capital diagonalmente. Las rotondas con tráfico rodado se encuentran en las intersecciones de las avenidas con otras avenidas o con calles. Los barrios se conocen por las rotondas cercanas. Las rotondas normalmente toman el nombre de generales y almirantes de la Guerra Civil estadounidense.
