These really lovely high-rise condos and 2-3 level row homes are wonderful examples of "Late Modern" architecture in an urban environment. With crazy expanses of green area in between the buildings and a really nice green roof on the center plaza, the complex was built and completed as a companion to neighboring Tiber Island and both were featured in that years DC's best addresses. The architect was Arthur H Keyes who described the property as "both urban and residential" (Keyes, Arthur, "An Architect Talks About the Spaces Between Buildings"Architectural Record; 1963). The feel of the grounds and interior of the lobbies is grand and unmistakably 60's. Though upgrades have been made to the property over the years, the bones and heart remain the same. As the neighborhood grows up around these prominent complexes, the grounds themselves will retain a certain quietness rarely available in an area of DC so centrally located to waterfront, metro and ballpark. With 10 different floor plans ranging from a 450 Sq ft efficiency to 2 BR 3 BA =3 story row homes, and prices that are still affordable if not a downright good investment, I would say life in the Carrollsburg is a cant miss. Please give me a call at 703-403-3516 or email me at christopher.heller@cbmove.com if you would like to see one of the available units or if you have any questions about the SW neighborhood.
