Mount Vernon Square Real Estate, Washington DC
The first thing you should know about Mount Vernon Square (also sometimes referred to as Mount Vernon Triangle) is that there are a ton of available condos for sale. Why the different geometric references? The Mt. Vernon Triangle is the more recent name for a business improvement district that is bordered by the Mt. Vernon Square park at the eastern end, expanding west via a triangular shape, with New York Avenue to the north, New Jersey Ave to the West and Massachusetts Ave to the south as other boundaries.
While many of the buildings are new, you can still find plenty of beautiful historical structures as well. Plus, the neighborhood is just blocks from the U.S. Capitol and White House. During a time of shrinking inventory and skyrocketing prices, this high-density urban community is attracting a swarm of new home buyers.
Mount Vernon Square dates back to 1687 when it was known as Point Royal. Centuries passed and grand buildings were built, and in time, many fell to ruin. The1968 riots led to a lengthy period of neglect and desolation. Eventually, the city used eminent domain to take a portion of the neighborhood, tearing down those neglected, desperate Beaux Arts and Art Deco buildings. But some still remain and have become sought-after homes for sale and of course, vacant lots have become new modernistic mixed-use structures with luxury condos for sale and ground floor retail. The District is in the middle of virulent renewal with Starbucks springing up like caffeinated blades of grass.
