How Far From International Gardens to ...

We spend a lot of time looking through Gazetteers that were published in the late 1800's and early 1900's. Many of the Gazetteers include the distance from a community such as International Gardens to various places of note, such as the White House.

• The White House (Washington, DC) is 1,838 miles [2,958 km]<2> to the east (E).

A comfortable walk of 2.2 miles [3.5 km] per hour would take 105 days. A horse and buggy averaging 3.2 miles [5.1 km] per hour would take 72 days.
