Apartment living on a grand scale. Nine apartments - each with walls of windows, hardwood floors, and custom closets - were created from The Warder and Atlas Buildings, part of a set of Victorian commercial buildings that were saved from demolition. The result? A truly boutique, intimate vibe from the moment you walk past the lobby to when you step inside your home. Add in gym access, garage parking options, and a rooftop overlooking The Smithsonian's National Portrait Gallery and American Art Museum and you have a masterpiece in its own right.
