Every city has an "it" neighborhood – fun, funky, close to everything – and for DC, that neighborhood is Logan Circle. Named for a historic traffic circle ringed with Victorian homes, Logan Circle is beautiful, trendy, pedestrian-friendly, and filled with terrific boutiques, restaurants, theaters, art galleries, and bars. Think second-hand stores and avant garde films, dive bars and elegant French restaurants. Being DC's "it" neighborhood, Logan Circle apartments are in very high demand.
You'll find a variety of shops, restaurants, bars, and theaters along 14th Street. If you are out shopping and want to stop for lunch, Le Diplomate is rumored to have the best burgers around. Catch a play at Studio Theatre, or take a walking tour of the area's numerous art galleries.
The Logan Circle Historic District is DC's only circle park to retain its original residential character. The center of the circle features a statue of John Logan, a Civil War general.
