PoP asked me to check out a wine and cheese open house that the new Parker Flats (or Schoolhouse Lofts, as the new management company is calling them) in LeDroit Park (such a really, really great neighborhood) hosted last week. In reality, it was more of a self-guided tour to check out available condo units in the building, and conspicuously absent from the event until I was walking out was the aforementioned wine and cheese. Prices ranged from $244,900 for a 555 sq. ft. studio to $439,900 for a 1,200 sq. ft. 2 bedroom/2 bathroom. You can see more photos here. (If you can get the page to load – I could not.) The property is under new management, and is now being handled by Urban Land Company. They said there was information on their website, but again, I was unsuccessful at locating any information. The condos were very DC “luxury” condo-like, and perfectly fine if you like that sort of thing. The 1 BR/1 BA on the third floor would only be good if you were under 6 ft or so, as the bedroom ceiling was short and slanted. (Sadly, my camera batteries died before I could snap any pictures of this unit; the rest all look the same, so the below should be representative.)

Anyone else check out this place located at 2035 2ND ST, NW?  Do those prices seem reasonable?  What’s the scoop on LeDroit Park?


I’m going to be honest, I have no idea where I took this picture. Maybe Eckington, Le Droit Park… Well, where ever it is – it’s pretty sweet, yeah?


Did parts of U Street used to be referred to as Old Spruce Street? Anyone know the history here?


Sweet, sweet property in Eckington Le Droit Park. Umm, no I’m second guessing myself…but we can agree it is a dope sky property from the outside at least.
