While visiting Washington, we recommend seeing some of the neighborhoods that border Columbia Heights. Located just three blocks from our unit is D.C.'s resident eclectic neighborhood, Adams Morgan. At the crossroads of 18th Street and Columbia Road NW, Adams Morgan is a vibrant center celebrated for its diversity and eccentricity. This area boasts the largest display of expressive art in the city. Colorful and evocative murals can be easily discovered by simply walking the streets of this lively district. Additionally, it is a multi-cultural bazaar of one-of-a-kind shopping and international flavors, along with excellent examples of late-19th and early-20th century row houses and apartment buildings. At night, Adams Morgan transforms into one of the city's hotspots for music, dancing, and bars. Madam's Organ is only one local favorite with the city's young professionals.
Just south of Columbia Heights is the historic U Street Corridor. Dubbed the Harlem of Washington and Black Broadway, U Street was the center of Washington’s music scene in the first half of the 20th century. Jazz greats Ella Fitzgerald, Pearl Bailey and Duke Ellington could be found performing at the Lincoln Theater, Howard Theater, and other clubs and jazz venues. The area remains a destination for good music and young people from all over the metropolitan area come to the city to enjoy performances at the 9:30 Club, The Black Cat, and Bus Boys & Poets, among other hot night spots. Be sure to stop in at Ben's Chili Bowl for a half smoke-and-chili dog. The U Street Corridor is accessible by foot and is on Metro's Green/Yellow line.
At the heart of the city and not far from Columbia Heights is the tony neighborhood of DuPont Circle. Located in a section of Washington called Old City, DuPont Circle is a traffic circle, neighborhood, and historic district. The area is anchored by a beautiful fountain honoring Rear Admiral Samuel Francis Du Pont. A number of historic homes can be found throughout the area, including the post-presidential residence of Woodrow Wilson. DuPont Circle is another destination for fine dining and entertainment.
