It's a great day for a House Tour! Tickets are still available until 3pm outside the House of the Temple.
Here's a look at the beautiful Presidential Condominiums, featured on the 50th Annual Dupont Circle House Tour. The Presidential and the Jefferson were two of the first apartment buildings to take advantage of the District of Columbia Zoning Board’s decision in 1922 to allow apartment houses on 16th Street, south of Scott Circle. Sadly, with the Jefferson converted to a hotel, only the Presidential remains of the grand apartment buildings that once stood along this section of 16th Street. Completed in 1923, the 8-story Presidential was converted from rentals to a co-op in 1959. Today there are 42 residences on Floors Two through Eight with commercial units on the first floor. Many of the apartments have been upgraded but retain their original character in the moldings and spacious layouts. Mrs. Clara R. Dennis, a wealthy widow, built the Presidential for $350,000. She envisioned members of President Harding’s cabinet and their families would live in the building, one to a floor. Although the White House is only blocks away, the plan was never realized. See two of the spectacular condos in the Presidential as part of the Dupont Circle House Tour this Sunday. Tickets are available online at www.dupont-circle.org/tickets for $40 through Saturday, or they can be purchased on the day of the tour at the Temple of the Scottish Rite (1733 16th Streeet NW) for $50.
Loving this a cappella group at the South Dupont metro station. 🎤🎵🎶
As part of the 50th Annual Dupont Circle House Tour, a lavish afternoon tea will be held at the Scottish Rite Temple. This House of the Temple was designed by famous architect John Russell Pope, who also designed the Jefferson Memorial and the National Gallery of Art. Walking into the atrium for the first time is awe-inspiring as you feel you are being transported back in time to an ancient temple. The Egyptian and Greek influences encompassing the space are immediately recognizable. See for yourself on October 15 -- get your tickets now for the Dupont Circle House Tour! www.dupont-circle.org/housetour
