I will be in DC just for one day in a couple weeks (will be in Baltimore for a Habitat trip over spring break).

What would be some things I would have to see in DC when only having a day there?

Any ideas for Baltimore? Thanks. I am glad somebody else had a thread like this.

A great many of the most interesting sights in DC (such as all branches of the Smithsonian) are located in a cluster around the circumference of the Reflecting Pool, with the Lincoln Memorial at one end and the Capitol at the other, the Washington Memorial in the middle. If you don't mind a walk, you can see many of the best things in a (very hurried) day - but start early.

Baltimore- Inner harbor & the Aquarium

DC- Pick whatever interests you the most on the mall (Air & Space, Smithsonian, National Gallery, American Indian, National Archives, etc.)
But take the time to enjoy the view from the base of the Washington Monument where you can see the mall, the Capitol, the White House, the reflecting pools, and the Lincoln Memorial.

Tour the USF CONSTELLATION in Baltimore's Inner Harbor. It's great and there are quite a few more attractions at the Inner Harbor. Here's your link:

Enjoy!
