Property Location
About 1301 DELAWARE AVE SW #N818
Harbour Square is a cooperative community at 1301 Delaware Ave SW, comprising a series of mid-century residential buildings set on landscaped grounds in the SW quadrant. Unit N818 is located on the eighth floor of the N building, a position that provides separation from street level and views over the surrounding neighborhood. The cooperative structure means residents own shares in the corporation, with occupancy rights governed by a proprietary lease rather than a traditional deed.
The SW quadrant occupies a distinct position in the District, bounded by the National Mall to the north, the Anacostia River to the east, and the Potomac to the west. The Wharf, situated along the Southwest Waterfront, has become a regional destination for dining, live music, and waterfront access. The neighborhood also places residents within walking distance of the National Mall, the Smithsonian museums, and the federal core.
Daily life from Harbour Square is oriented around walkability and transit. L’Enfant Plaza Metro, one of the most transfer-rich stations in the Metrorail system, is accessible on foot and connects to the Blue, Orange, Silver, Green, and Yellow lines. The Wharf provides waterfront dining and grocery options, while the broader SW neighborhood offers parks, the Arena Stage theater, and direct access to the waterfront promenade.
