The Copperfield Condos For Sale, Washington DC
Built in 1910, The Copperfield—a six-story Art Deco building—looms large in Washington, DC, taking up an entire section of a block on three sides. While the street address is 2901 16th Street NW, it also touches Harvard Street and Columbia Road, as if on an urban peninsula all of its own. Imagine this structure back in its turn-of-the-century heyday, surrounded by early automobiles and horse-drawn buggies!
What was the building named after, one wonders? Was it inspired by Dickensian tales of childhood poverty and depression? Was it commissioned by some metal industrialist? We shall never know, because the internet does not hold the answers.

But what we can say with some assuredness, is the glorious old apartments at the Copperfield have since been transformed into modern luxury condos for sale. Imagine one of the original residents from a century ago, entering their abode to discover entire walls missing, with a chef’s kitchen, granite breakfast bar and stainless steel appliances!
With 23 studio, one and two-bedroom residences, the enigmatic old building is located in Columbia Heights, right at the Adams Morgan border. This is an amazing neighborhood, just two blocks north of Meridian Hill Park with its long terraced waterfall and historic sculptured. Once upon a time, a courtly gentleman may have exited the Copperfield, strolling to the park and tipping his top hat to ladies along the way.
Times have changed, of course. We are in a new modern age with all the conveniences one would ever need. Now, you can exit your condo and let a yapping dog drag you to the very same park, all while juggling a Starbucks and trying to snapchat on an iPhone at the same time.
And when the darkness of night falls, one can venture out into the vibrant urban jungle on foot, knowing that Lou’s City Bar or Acre 121 are just steps away. Shake and bake with craft beers and pro sports on overhead flat screens!
