Mt. Pleasant

Mount Pleasant is a diverse neighborhood in northwest Washington, D.C. The neighborhood is bounded by Rock Creek Park to the north and west; and Harvard Street, NW and the Adams Morgan neighborhood to the south; and Sixteenth Street, NW and the Columbia Heights neighborhood to the east. The western four-fifths of the Mount Pleasant area is a largely wooded residential enclave bounded on two sides by Rock Creek Park. Homes in this area are primarily rowhouses, with some subdivided into apartments. A few of the original nineteenth century wood-frame houses remain, mostly north of Park Road. The eastern border of Mount Pleasant, along Sixteenth and Mount Pleasant Streets, is marked by mid-rise apartment buildings and condominiums. There is a four-block commercial corridor with convenience shopping in the neighborhood along Mount Pleasant Street. In 2008, a large retail development was completed in Columbia Heights, just east of Mount Pleasant, offering close proximity to a wide range of retail, shops and restaurants along with the Columbia Heights Green Line Metro stop on 14th Street. The zip codes for the neighborhood are 20009 to the south, and 20010 to the north.
