Apartments in Washington, DC

“Amazing help from Terrance! He went above and beyond by coming in on his day off to fix my shower. Not only was he quick and professional, but he also took the time to thoroughly explain the issue to prevent reoccurrences in the future, and he ensured everything was working before he left. Terrance's expertise and positive energy is what makes Avalon a great place to live!”

“If you are considering moving to 455 Eye - do it! The leasing team (especially Chris) all go above and beyond to make sure you are taken care of. The front desk and maintenance team are consistent, kind, and caring. I cannot recommend moving here enough. It has been a blissful two years here.”

“Bri and the rest of the 425 Mass staff were very helpful in answering all of my questions, and providing a seamless transition and move in experience. Modern building with smart home features, thick walls, secure garage, great amenities, and the rooftop views are second to none.”

“I’ve lived in the community going on three years now. The amenities/events are fantastic and the staff (from maintenance, to concierges, to the leasing office) are timely and on top of things. I really appreciate the help the Ahmad provided when I moved apartments. He was patient and thorough, making the process smooth and straight forward. He answered every question I had (there were a lot) and for that I am so grateful! A great community to be part of.”

“I moved to Washington about 8 months ago for work — this was my first time living outside of Texas — and I was in a rush to find a place to live. I wasn’t able to tour the building before I moved in but the virtual tour of the floor plan impressed me enough to where I decided I’d live here. While I was extremely impressed by the virtual tour, it does not do the building or the units justice. This place is awesome. It’s got an amazing location in the trendy Navy Yard neighborhood, so plenty of entertainment within walking distance — also about a 15 minute walk to the Capitol and a 2 minute walk to the Navy Yard metro station, giving you easy access to the rest of the District and its surrounding areas. Common areas within the building are clean and tidy, and the unit is exceptional — I have so much space! Special shout out to the amazing staff here, especially the wonderful concierge team. I’ve rented many apartments in my life and I’ve never felt more at home than I do here. I plan to continue living at 909 New Jersey as long as I can.”

“I lived at "The KW" for 7 years, ending in January 2024. During this time, I lived in both the South (built in 2000's) and Historic (built in 1932 and 1935). Leasing agents will be happy to provide a tour of either, so I'll leave descriptions of apartments out. Suffice to say, there are a variety of floor plans and none (including the studios) are shabby. Some amenities of the building (indoor heated pool, sauna, gym) are truly top-notch. The rooftop grills could be much better; but the area warmers are a great touch for those those hanging on to the outdoor space until the cold becomes unfightable.What I want to focus on is the experience. The KW courtyard is among the prettiest in DC and provides its own welcome which didn't diminish during my stay. Once inside, the main lobby provides a fantastic display of Art Deco and contains an elevated mezzanine that often provided a comfortable (and very well decorated) meeting place for myself and neighbors.This brings me to an aspect of the KW which may appeal to many, and certainly did to me. There exists a true sense of community which will match your level of engagement. That engagement spans across KW hosted activities, as well as events conducted by the Residents Association. The initiator and facilitator of these relationship is often the in-building private club/bar. For the first time, I knew dozens of my neighbors instead of just a handful. Many friendships therein will persist.The staff is mostly friendly and courteous. A few stand out as exceptional, and I'm not likely to find their equivalent again: Giovanna (Desk), Lea (Desk), Michael (Desk), Anthony (Engineering), James (Club), and Vanessa (Management).There are some things to pay attention to. This is an old building on the Historic Side; and, while the bones are great, one issue plagued my stay. Our front bathroom would begin to develop an odor several times a week. It was not mild, and smelled like a sewer. Engineering was never able to remediate this despite multiple attempts. None of my neighbors had a similar issue, so I suppose I was just lucky.In the South Wing, there is an engineering issue where water will leak past the valves in the washing machines should there be a pressure drop in the system. This could occur with the briefest power failure. If caught, Engineering will race to everyone's apartment to see if the issue is presenting and pursue resolution. If uncaught, the washing machines will fill and begin to spill over. I once had flooding in my apartment from above due to this issue. If I didn't hear the water and turn off my valves manually, the flooding would have been that much worse. Some of my neighbors had this occur multiple times.In all, I highly recommend the KW for young (Historic Wing) and old. If you're a lifelong renter, rent stabilization with a young start will provide you a home in a fabulous building at a cost that's unheard of. If you want a home to age in place, you'll find a vibrant group of neighbors who are continuously organizing get-togethers and are genuine friends.I was in the middle, and figured my best move was to buy something. I did this, however, with my wife; and I met my wife at the KW Club when I was 46. Need I say more?”

“First of all, the location is great.
I enjoyed jogging every morning to the White House, the Capitol, and the Lincoln and Jefferson Memorials. There are many delicious restaurants and cafes nearby.
This is the best location for sightseeing in Washington.

It was a two-bedroom room, and one room had an independent bathroom and closet, so it was comfortable, and the other room had a wide bed and closet, so it was comfortable for four people to stay without being cramped.

The living room was surprisingly spacious and the kitchen was perfect for cooking.
(However, the knife was not very sharp.)

I stayed for a week and enjoyed Washington to the fullest.
I will definitely use it the next time I visit.”

“The leasing staff is second to none. Not only was my agent professional, responsive and nice- she went out of her way to make my move a success. I feel very welcomed and know I made the right choice.”

“Was looking at living here. The facilities and amenities seem top-notched. Beautiful finishes and the roof top is spacious with tons of seating. It’s also located in a neighborhood with a plethora of dining and entertainment options.”

“Cathedral Commons is an excellent place to live! Price/location/and people make it the best deal in the city. Staff is very helpful, the amenities are excellent, and the neighborhood has everything. It is also a great neighborhood if you have a dog, there is a dog park two blocks away, and many doggie bag dispensers if you forget to bring a bag.”

“Dear CeCe and the Banks family,

Thank you so much for all the fun activities you do for us and for bringing the building together and helping create new friendships. So many creative projects you do for us are greatly appreciated. Everyone who is part of this awesome building, from the lovely ladies who keep the building looking great, is there. The maintenance team, the Front desk crew, and of course the office ninjas with their big smiles. I don't get to say it to you directly as much as I would like to, so I wanted to make sure to thank everything. The BBQ battle gift baskets were awesome.

You bring smiles every day and your kindness and generosity are boundless. You put so much time into the happiness of your tenants that it goes above and beyond. I should know, that whenever you create and host these mixers for the building you're always the first one here and the last one out. I know that is not easy and when you have a team that is cohesive and works like family it projects that same energy to all those who are blessed to be around it.”

“Вот тот же текст без жирного, обычными буквами:

We’ve been living here for about a month in apartment 1210 on Mass, and honestly, we’re really happy with the place. The apartment is bright, comfy, and perfect for a family. The building is quiet and feels safe, and everything is well taken care of. The area is super convenient — stores and everything you need are right nearby. Overall, it’s a really great spot to live in D.C.”

“Five stars all around from Dontrell in leasing, to all the amazing front desk workers, and Jeremy's phenomenal maintenance work. I could not be happier having found a home here.

The building has amazing views from the roof deck, which includes a fire pit, tv, lounge chairs, two grills, and dining areas. The location is pretty hard to beat and the floor to ceiling windows allow in amazing natural light.

If I could give more stars than 5 I would for the outstanding management, maintenance, and front desk team for their genuine personalities and the amazing customer service they provide.”

“Can only speak to the tour but had a great experience with Hakeem, one of the property managers. He was friendly, easy to talk to, knew the property well and answered every question. He clearly thinks this is a great building and it shows in his work.”

“Julie, David and Tite are an exceptional property management team. Facilities are spotless and well taken care of, management is responsive and is all you could ask for and more as a renter.”

“Jada and Sherrod have been invaluable in handling any issues I've encountered. Their positive attitudes and vibrant energy truly make the community welcoming. I also love my apartment and the amenity spaces. Thank you, Elevation leasing team!”

“We lived at Takoma Central for 7 years, through 2 owners and 4 management companies. The current Bozzuto team is BY FAR the best management team the building has ever had. Denisse and Taylor in the office and Ibrahim doing the maintenance work are diligent, caring, and most importantly, they are highly competent. It's not just talk - they get things done. It's a refreshing surprise to encounter competence in building management, they go above and beyond and they do it with a friendly attitude.
Working with Denisse, Taylor, and Ibrahim has been a pleasure.”

“My husband and I have lived at the Calvert Woodley in a 2-bed, 1-bath apartment overlooking Rock Creek Park for over 3 years. We hope we never have to move! Amazing views, spacious rooms, hardwood floors, plenty of closet space. While it's an older building and HVAC/plumbing has its issues, they've made significant upgrades and changes recently that have lessened the problems. The building has a small gym and nice rooftop deck. I wish the shared laundry had more washers/dryers, but alas, no place is perfect. Many of the front desk staff are friendly, and all packages are handled and secured in a storage room. The maintenance team especially is the best -- usually handled the very next day after submitting a request online -- and big thanks to Kevin, who is friendly, prompt, and fixes everything fast. We love living here and hope we can stay for many years to come.”

“This is a good place to live. I recommend these apartments 100%, it is a very clean and safe place, the service in the office is excellent. All the people at the reception have been super friendly, attentive and always willing to help you. They get to know the tenants personally and are always very friendly when you come in. They have very carefully about your package.
Also, In case something is damaged in the apartment, you simply make the report and they come to repair it very quickly. I love this place. Home Sweet Home.”

“I love living at Monroe Street Market! Everyone there is so friendly and helpful. Jacob helped me out when I was looking at Monroe Street and he is one of the friendliest people you will ever meet. I totally recommend living here!”

“I enjoy living here overall. I wish we had a pool, sigh.. The amenities and the events that are thrown here make up for it! Tonight we had a comedy show put on by 4corners. It was so funny. Drinks, good laughs and great company for sure!!”

“The management team as well as the maintenance team really cares about the resident’s wellbeing. They help come up with successful solutions to problems and get them resolved fast. I really appreciate this!”

“Ms. Richardson was terrific to work with and very accommodating! She was honest and transparent, which is what you need. Although I proceed with a different apartment complex, the interaction and experience she gave was great.”

“Well I never thought I would be writing this but R Street apartments is on the come up. As a resident for over 5 years there has finally been some good progress in make R Street apartments into what feels like a home. Thank you to our new community manager, Danielle Carter, there has been great improves to the complex. Now are the buildings still showing some of the 100+ year old character, (it feels old) yes but overall the way this place is run is much better than managements past. Danielle and team have solved some account problems that had been lingering for 2+ years and was even able to retrieve a stolen package. They have continued to enforce common sense rules that make the complex more enjoyable for all residents. Lastly the maintenance team has been a huge upgrade from years past. The guys are very respectful of your home and are working around the clock to have issues resolved - including great communication that keeps you in the loop as larger projects are being done. I experienced this directly with my heat in my apartment.”

“As a long term resident at Connecticut Heights, I am grateful for our amazing concierge Bernell and our fabulous office staff! Nathan, Lawrence, Rashad and Shayna are always available for any support and needs. The leasing office is always helpful and prompt in communication responses. Between the new concierge and the leasing office team, I would highly recommend Connecticut Heights. I have enjoyed the community vibe that both the concierge Bernell, and the leasing office have worked hard to create.”

“JJ, the maintenance guy, and Noble, the evening receptionist, are the best of Park Connecticut. JJ is always friendly, knows what he is doing, and is quick to respond. Great guy and great service. Noble is always anxious to give our dog a treat and knows where every package is every time. Both deserve a raise.”

“I lived at Corcoran House for over four years in a studio, and couldn't have been happier. I ended up moving because I personally wanted a larger one bedroom space.

Frank summarized notes: good neighborhood vibes. Rent is a little overpriced for the market, but the location balances out. No surprise fees. I had no pest issues at all—my absolute biggest un-compromisable requirement, personally. The walls are thick and made of concrete, so no noise issues from neighbors. Close to nightlife (flipside: on some weekend nights there's noise from people walking up/down 18th street, but not horrible, and to be expected for any apartment in Dupont / downtown DC generally imo). Never had any package theft. Building community has a good spread of young professionals, young families, and some older folks; good people and good vibes.

Local notes: the Dupont Farmer's market (every weekend when the weather is good, every other when it's not) is a block away. Super convenient. So is the park. So are most other things. Take advantage of the location!

I think a good vibe check is whether or not you'd recommend an apartment to friends/family—in this case, I would. Apartment hunting sucks; hope this helps!”

“I love the Hecht so much! The community is so friendly and welcoming and it’s in the perfect spot with access to fun and food right at your fingertips. I work with Quasha to find the perfect spot! She was incredibly helpful and made the process so easy and stress free.”

“The apartments are very nice, the building has an unbeatable location, as you have pharmacies, food stores, restaurants, bus stops and metro stations very close. Furthermore, the administration is extremely friendly and always seeks to help you so that you feel very comfortable and happy living in their apartments. It is certainly a great place to live.”

“I love living at Alban Towers! The staff are very helpful especially Eyob and Mike who helped me graciously when I was having a crisis in my apartment! Everyone is very kind.”
