More People See Penn Quarter As A Residential Neighborhood
One mission of our humble blog is to get the word out that, amongst the beautiful museums, courts, and other federal & office buildings, people also live in the Penn Quarter section of town.
We don’t take credit for single-handedly informing the world on Penn Quarter happenings, but in our regular blog searching we came across some evidence that people are thinking residential:
From Notes from Arcturus:
The vaulted, airy, cool interior of the National Building Museum … formerly the Pension Building … It’s located near where I work down by Judiciary Square and the section of the city called “Penn Quarter” where there are actually quite a few condos and a whole neighborhood I never really knew existed. It’s an odd section of town.
From d.c. diaries:
Anyway, after we hit up the Juan, we walk through the Penn Quarter, which has become our favorite neighborhood. (If we had a cool half-mill to drop on a condo in one of those fabulous, restored buildings, we SO would — property taxes be damned.) We like to sit at the Navy Memorial off Pennsylvania Avenue — right across from the National Archives — and watch the people go by. The tourists are the best. For obvious reasons.
