Dupont Circle.
Federal townhouses, bookshops that know their regulars, and the long afternoons of N Street.
Dupont Circle was always meant to be a residential district. The fountain at its center, Connecticut Avenue diagonal through it, and the geometry of its radial streets produce an arrangement that still reads more as a London crescent than a modern American plan. The townhouses on Q Street and N Street — the latter home to our office — have been the neighborhood’s architectural signature since the 1890s.
The commercial life around the circle is unusually literary. Kramers has kept the same corner for fifty years; Second Story has been at its awning for thirty. These are the bookshops that know their regulars. The residences one or two streets back preserve the neighborhood’s 19th-century character almost entirely.
Our office at 1718 N Street is two doors from The Folger. We have a small conference room overlooking the sycamores, and we take appointments there Monday through Saturday.
