Here is more specific information about some of the different neighborhoods in DC
Adams Morgan
Culturally diverse and artistic, Adams Morgan is centered around the intersection of 18th and Columbia Road NW. Decorated with colorful murals and storefronts, sidewalk cafes, ethnic cuisine, coffee shops, and vintage stores-Adams Morgan is known as one of the hippest neighborhood with some of DC’s best live music venues.
Architecturally, Adams Morgan is composed primarily of historic row homes built in the 19th and early 20th century. However since 2001, new residential developments have moved into the neighborhood boasting modern lofts and condos with more than 5100 new units already built and 1300 more units to be completed in the near future. A new Harris Teeter grocery store has further grounded the area as a strong residential address for both families and young professionals in search of the perfect urban oasis.
