Why Live at the Truman House?

Because we offer stylish, affordable apartment living in a GREAT NEIGHBORHOOD!

The Truman House is a four-story condominium with 28 studio and one bedroom apartments. Formerly one of the city's first Co-ops, The Truman House was built in the 1920s and was owned by its residents until 2003. It was completely renovated in early 2005.

Apartments are separately metered for electric and gas usage. The building has central heating and hot water services. Each unit has an air conditioner, refrigerator, and oven/stove. Residents pay for their own phone, gas and electrical utilities. There are 20 rental storage units on-site as well as 4 parking spaces available for rent by the month. There are laundry facilities on each floor.

The DuPont East/Logan Circle Neighborhood

The surrounding neighborhood is located in the triangle whose points are the Logan, Scott, and Thomas Circles. In rental literature the area is often referred to as DuPont East/Logan Circle. The triangle is bounded by Rhode Island Ave. to the North, Vermont Ave. to the East, 16th Street to the West, and Massachusetts Ave. to the South. The Metro’s Blue/Orange Line McPherson Square stop is 4 blocks to the South and the Metro's Red Line is just 4 blocks West. Several metrobus lines run along the 14th street corridor, a major North/West vehicular artery one half block from the Truman House.

The Truman House apartments are minutes to everything that DC has to offer. The Pentagon, State Department, Capitol Hill, White House, Johns Hopkins School of Advanced International Studies, Howard University, and George Washington University and hospital are all less than 30 minutes by foot and/or 15 minutes by metro. Most of the city's embassies are within a 20 minute (or less) walk and most of the city's major think tanks are less than a 15 minute walk. We are a leisurely 15-minute walk from the White House and the National Mall.

This neighborhood is currently undergoing a very rapid transformation. Both the well-established DuPont and newly redeveloping Logan Circle neighborhoods are highly desirable, and some of the largest and most elegant Victorian homes in Washington are located less than 2 blocks from The Truman. Several Condos, Apartments, and Lofts are being built in the neighborhood.

Other neighborhoods conveniently located within 8 blocks are the revitalized U Street entertainment corridor (seven blocks North), Chinatown & MCI Center (eight blocks to the Southeast), the Shaw District and new $880 million Convention center (six blocks East), DuPont Circle (four blocks West), and the downtown Business Improvement District known as the Golden Triangle (1 block South). Over the past five years, the area has undergone a wholesale transformation into a professional, young, upwardly mobile enclave. Several local boutique furniture stores, cafes, shops, stores, clubs and restaurants have opened in the past few years. The Source Theatre is a leading non-profit theatre located two and a half blocks away on 14th street. Recently, Whole Foods Market, a premium-quality full-service supermarket opened two blocks away. Starbucks and Caribou Coffee shops are each within 2 blocks.

Although a newly renovated building, the Truman still offers the most affordable rental rates in this dynamic and central neighborhood.
