Note: I did not take any of these photos.
I link to the original site where possible (respecting copyright!).
Many of these photos are from the Library of Congress American Memory Collection and Dave's Electric Railroads; if you're interested in DC historical photos, there's a lot of them on these sites to browse and search. And the official web site for The Yards includes a page devoted to the long history of what used to be the Navy Yard Annex and the Southeast Federal Center. In addition, the District Department of Transportation has begun posting photos from its archives.
Visit the DC Public Library's Washingtoniana room in person to browse scads of historic photos and documents.
