My wife went to college at George Washington in DC and apparently they all referred to it as the Hinckley Hilton.
@ian Yeah. You can get in a taxi and ask to be taken there and they’ll know which Hilton you mean.

I remember the Washington Star newspaper, a competitor to The Post, printed The President’s Daily Schedule every day. I seem to recall Hinkley referred to that schedule to find out where and when Reagan would be on the fateful day, and that that’s how Hinkley wound up outside the Hilton. (The Star discontinued printing the daily schedule after the shooting.)
