Albert Gallatin, 4th Secretary of the Treasury during the Jefferson and Madison Administrations
Ronald Reagan International Trade Center (my internship/work place)
John F. Kennedy's goal was to modernize Pennsylvania Avenue and it took another 20 years or so until Congress passed the Federal Triangle Development Act in 1987. Since the law was signed during the Reagan Administration, it was named after President Ronald Reagan who compromised on signing the construction of this highly expensive building if it was named after him. The reason was because Ronald Reagan was known for small government expenses which was not the case regarding the construction of this building.
