An highly desirable place to live. The historic architecture of the neighborhood (particularly in the Victorian-era rowhouses) contributes to a distinctly European flair in much of Dupont Circle. This, combined with the presence of numerous foreign embassies and countless international restaurants, creates an unparalleled cosmopolitan atmosphere. It also includes a vast selection of more traditional eateries, low-key coffee shops, and convenient grocery stores, giving most folks the option to pick up a quick bite to eat or a week’s worth of necessities with ease. For off hours, museums and galleries are close at hand, and the eclectic nightlife offerings span from alternative rock venues to glitzy clubs to high-end cocktail bars. Downtown Washington is directly to the south, and of course Metro service makes it easy to reach anywhere in the DC area. Transportation options available include Dupont Circle, located 0.4 mile from The Apartments, the Apartments is near Ronald Reagan Washington Ntl, located 6.3 miles or 12 minutes away, and Washington Dulles International, located 26.8 miles or 44 minutes.
