Moderno

Located less than a block from the U Street Metro station, The Moderno offers central urban living in rooms that range in size from 635 to 2,300 square feet. Each of the 19 units in this building is a wonder of contemporary condo living, with features and finishes including (varying by unit) outdoor showers, expansive ceilings, Spanish-style cabinetry, solid wood doors, Elfa closet systems, Sub-Zero appliances, washer/dryer units, and a quaint breakfast bar. With a ground floor devoted to retail space, The Moderno has as its downstairs neighbors a frozen-yogurt shop to satisfy any sweet tooth (and calm any guilty conscience) as well as Gallagher & Graham Fine Spirits (which makes hosting a get-together a little easier). And the premium living doesn’t stop at your front door. You’ll have all around you some the city’s most popular bars, clubs, restaurants, and hangouts. Places you won’t want to miss: Ethiopian dinners at Dukem, live music shows at Lincoln Theatre and U Street Music Hall, great wines at Vinoteca, and fast-casual pizza pies at &pizza.
