About the Embassy building:

Placed in the distinctive neighborhood of Sheridan-Kalorama - home of five Presidents and of much of Washington’s diplomatic community- the Romanian Embassy was constructed in 1907, during the building boom that took place at the beginning of the 20th Century and it is an excellent example of the Beaux-Arts style of architecture, so popular in Washington at that time.  The design belongs to the famous firm of Carrère and Hastings from New York and combines a fine French style inspired by Parisian townhouses of the Louis XV and Louis XVI period with English elements of a later era.
