Английская Википедия:Embassy of Iran, Washington, D.C.
Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Infobox Diplomatic Mission The Former Embassy of Iran in Washington, D.C. was the Imperial State of Iran's diplomatic mission to the United States. Direct bilateral Iran–United States relations between the two governments were severed following the Iranian Revolution in 1979, and the subsequent seizure of hostages at the U.S. Embassy in Tehran, Iran.
History
The chancery, a modernist building, was built in 1959. It is accompanied by a Georgian style structure that serves as the ambassador's residence.[1] The complex is located in Washington, D.C.'s Embassy Row neighborhood.
During the age of the Shah, he attended numerous embassy functions there. The last resident Ambassador, Ardeshir Zahedi, cultivated a reputation of opulence, with star-studded parties and dinners. Famous figures who visited the embassy include Elizabeth Taylor, Andy Warhol, Barbara Walters, and Frank Sinatra. This was documented in 2013 by Iranian-American artist Eric Parnes, the first person in over 34 years to photograph the interior of the embassy.[2]
The embassy complex continues to be de jure owned by the Government of Iran,[3][4] but it has not been used by the Iranian government since April 7, 1980, and its buildings and grounds are currently maintained and de facto controlled by the U.S. Department of State.[5] Other properties include the residence of the Iranian military attache, 3410 Garfield Street NW, and the residence of the Iranian Minister of Cultural Affairs, 2954 Upton Street NW. Six of ten buildings are being rented.[6][7]
