Columbia Heights was home to several large estates and farms during the mid-1850s. The
neighborhood was later laid out as a residential suburb in the mid-1860s and attracted many
residents who had previously lived south of what is now Florida Avenue. It enjoyed a significant
increase in development during the first two decades of the 20 th century, mostly due to the
construction of the 16th Street trolley car line. The result of this development is evident in the many
small, fine buildings that were constructed during this time, including this one. Located in an enclave of mostly two-story buildings, this c. 1910 seven-unit building shares many of
the architectural features of its neighbors. Clad in either brick or stucco, these buildings present
modest, yet dignified facades along the newly drawn or renamed streets of that period. One block
off 16 th Street, this professionally managed building enjoys a superb location which is close to many
restaurants, cafés, and Metro. This two bedroom, one bathroom unit has been completely refreshed
with new kitchen appliances and refinished original oak floors. Charming, bright, and spacious, this
apartment offers great value and location.
