Apartments for Rent in Park View - Washington

With places like Union Drinkery and the NuVegan Café, Park View has everything you could want in a hip, trendy neighborhood. Georgia Avenue runs through the neighborhood and serves as a lively commercial district, lined with delis, cafes, restaurants, yoga studios, and curious businesses like Kraken Axes -- an ax-throwing venue. Park View is a small neighborhood often thought to be part of its nearby neighbors: Columbia Heights is on the west side, Petworth is to the north, and Soldiers Home is on the east side.

Howard University is located on the south end of the neighborhood, making Park View a popular choice for college students. While there are a few parks in Park View, the neighborhood is actually named for its view of the nearby Armed Forces Retirement Home-Washington, a US Historic District that contains Lincoln's Cottage. Residents of Park View enjoy fast access to the nearby Petworth Metro Station, just north of the neighborhood.
