Bloomingdale has trees such as elm, maple, crape myrtle and ginko lining this quaint community that is rich in history and architectural charm. The neighborhood is known for its quiet streets and accessibility. The proximity to the downtown business district, Catholic Univeristy, the Washington Hospital Center, historical landmarks, Metro & bus access, 395 and other commercial venues have made Bloomingdale an ideal location within the District. Today the streets are abuzz with neighbors heading to one of the newly opened restaurants or the Sunday farmers market. Visitors are greeted warmly by residents sitting on their front porch enjoying what Bloomingdale has to offer - a sense of community.

The Studio is part of an award winning renovation of a 1904 school house. Abandoned and derelict for 35 years, Bonstra | Haresign ARCHITECTS converted this abandoned public school building into 92 loft-style condos with two levels of underground parking. Preserving while creating, the design team retained the brick shell, standing seam roof, and wood windows but widened the connection between the two wings, added new dormers, and replaced the mechanical exhaust cupola.
- Unique 9 ft west facing windows complement the gorgeous 12+ ft ceilings. Natural light pours in and allows for spectacular evening sunsets.
- Original details throughout. Your friends will fall in love with the exposed brick wall!
- Large, spacious kitchen with plentiful counter space, sleek stainless steel appliances, granite counters and an eat-in breakfast bar.
- Separate living and bedroom areas with plenty of space for both comfortably.
- Bedroom space features an expansive walk-in closet.
- Bathroom features Italian ceramic tile
- Extra storage room conveys.


Parker Flats @ Gage School

- Award winning building, DC Architecture & Washingtonian Magazines
- Newly renovated in the mid-2000s of a 1904 School House.
- Beautifully maintained landscaping with a gated community courtyard
- Full-time maintenance staff
- Small gym located in the V St. building
- Just blocks from the Sunday Bloomingdale farmers market
- ½ block from the new Park @ LeDroit which has a dog park, community garden and children's playground
- Construction details: It is a brick masonry structure 2-stories high with slate hipped roof, piano nobile, and an English basement. Seven bays wide by seven bays long, the building footprint is square. The facade composition is bilaterally symmetrical with a central bay flanked by three identical bays. It is carefully proportioned and richly detailed with generous, sensitively conceived limestone detail. The red brick facades are laid up in Flemish bond with prominent white mortar joints. Quoining is simulated at the corners of the front facade. The central bay is denoted by a main entrance door approached from the street by a flight of sandstone stairs. The entrance door is flanked by Doric pilasters which support a frieze and segmental arched pediment. At the second floor the central window has a broad limestone surround and sill. The windows in the flanking bays are differentiated between the first story with circular arched brick lintels and limestone keystones and the second floor with flat limestone lintels. Limestone string-courses at the water table and the foundation tie together the composition. The entire composition is crowned with a pressed metal cornice. (Bloomindaledc.org)
