Washington - Dupont Circle District

Dupont Circle District came to life in the late 1880s when the district was an affluent and vibrant neighborhood. Found along Connecticut Avenue from N to T Street NW, this neighborhood is primarily residential with commercial and entertainment sections. The fountain in the circle park was designed by Chester French, who carved the sculpture of Lincoln in the Lincoln memorial.

Rhode Island Avenue, NW; M and N Streets, NW; Florida Avenue, NW; and Swann Street, NW are the boundaries of the designated Historic District.
