One of a kind. An original. The vibrant hub of activity in Washington, DC. Dupont Circle has a long, rich history of social influence that reaches across the metropolitan region, throughout America and around the world. One of the focal points of DC culture, shopping, dining, nightlife and connectivity, Dupont Circle offers something for just about everyone. Known for its stately Victorian row houses as well as its condominium and apartment living, Dupont is home to longtime DC residents as well as newcomers.
In 1882, Congress renamed ?Pacific Circle? to honor Samuel Francis DuPont in recognition of his service as a rear admiral in the U.S. Civil War. Over the course of time, Dupont Circle has been the focus of pivotal civil riots, resurgence, activism and gentrification. Today, Dupont Circle is truly a recognizable, highly desirable address in the metropolitan Washington, DC region.
