One of the newest condo communities is part of a fashionable outdoor shopping mall. City Center DC is located at the site of the old Washington Convention Center and covers 10 acres right in the urban heart of the city. There are two condo towers with 216 modern units, as well as 40 upscale retailers and restaurants, offices, a hotel, and even a 1.5 acre park. Other popular condo addresses include the large City Vista, 555 Mass, Madrigal Lofts, Sonata, Ten Ten Mass, The Whitman, and Yale Steam Laundry. The latter is a landmark property built in 1902 that once cleaned the linens for the White House. These days, the former laundry with a huge smokestack on top offers industrial chic loft-style residences with exposed ductwork and trendy finishes.
More About Mt Vernon Square and Mt Vernon Triangle, Washington, DC
The side-by-side neighborhoods have a lot of history, and you’ll still find lovely old brownstone buildings and remarkable architecture. But the area has also gone through wholesale changes, thanks to government initiatives that have sought to revitalize the downtown area. In that regard, Mount Vernon Square and Mount Vernon Triangle are quite similar to neighboring communities like Penn Quarter and Chinatown. A period of decline and stagnation in the late 20th century led to a modern day resurgence, with old buildings standing next to gleaming modern towers, and in some cases, melding and piggybacking of construction.
Those living in the two Mt. Vernon enclaves will find they have everything they need at their doorsteps, including along bordering streets like Massachusetts and New York Avenues. The area is now very much a “live, work and play” destination, with tons of shopping, museums, theaters, and other cultural attractions. The number of bars, restaurants and bakeries is extraordinary, a small sampling of which would include Corduroy, Bar Chinois, Baab Siam, Yardbird Table and Bar, Alta Strada, A Baked Joint, Busboys and Poets, Toscana Market, and so many more. You can catch an NBA game or concert at Capitol One Arena, stroll along the National Mall, or head to work in DC’s many government and financial institutions.
