Eighth-Floor Residence in Established Woodley Park Building

The residence at 2501 Calvert Street NW, Unit 802, occupies the eighth floor of a mid-century building in one of NW Washington’s most enduring neighborhoods. Built in 1968, the building carries the architectural character of its era and the operational maturity that comes with decades of professional management.

Woodley Park sits between Rock Creek Park and the Connecticut Avenue commercial corridor, giving residents access to green space and urban amenity in equal measure. The National Zoo, a range of established restaurants, and neighborhood retail are all within walking distance of the front door.

The HOA fee structure at this building is notably comprehensive, covering water, sewer, trash, snow removal, lawn maintenance, insurance, management, and reserve funds. For buyers focused on predictable monthly costs, that breadth of coverage is a meaningful factor in the ownership calculus.

On-site rental parking rounds out the practical profile of this residence, addressing one of the more common friction points for DC condo buyers. The Red Line at Woodley Park-Zoo/Adams Morgan provides direct access to downtown and beyond.

The Building
The residence occupies the eighth floor of a 1968 building in Woodley Park, a neighborhood that has maintained its character and walkability across decades.

The Neighborhood
Woodley Park is bounded by Rock Creek Park to the west and the Connecticut Avenue corridor to the east, creating a neighborhood that balances green space with urban convenience. The National Zoo, neighborhood dining, and local retail are all accessible on foot from 2501 Calvert Street NW.
HOA Coverage

This level of coverage reduces the variable cost exposure that often accompanies condo ownership and supports straightforward monthly budgeting.
Parking and Transit
