The trendy neighborhood of Shaw is fast becoming one of Washington, DC’s top neighborhoods. The neighborhood is the birthplace of jazz legend Duke Ellington, and the bars and nightclubs played host to names like Ella Fitzgerald, Cab Calloway, Marvin Gaye, and Pearl Bailey. The iconic Howard Theatre still draws some of the biggest names in music.
Shaw apartments are plentiful and living here provides easy access to some of DC’s top restaurants, such as Table, Habesha, Bistro Bohem, and Azi’s Café. Shaw borders Logan Circle, another of DC’s top neighborhoods, and it is directly south of Howard University. Shaw is a very pedestrian-friendly neighborhood with easy access to two Metro stations. It is home to some of DC’s trendiest boutiques, art galleries, and markets. The increased popularity of Shaw and the high demand for housing has led to an interesting blend of historic rowhouses and sleek, modern apartment towers.
