Dupont Circle is a vibrant neighborhood located in the northwest quadrant of Washington DC, home to a stimulating mix of art galleries, embassies, and upscale eateries. At the heart of the community is a busy traffic circled marked by a spacious park and a majestic fountain designed by the sculptor of the Lincoln Memorial, Daniel Chester French.

Other properties include two and three-story row houses built in the Queen Anne and Richardsonian Romanesque styles.
