Windsor Park Hotel

History

This DuPont Circle neighborhood was once a rural backwater at the edge of the old city until after the Civil War, when a massive modernization program brought paved streets, sewers, and street lighting. The powerful and socially elite from about the city and the nation, including new millionaires with money made in Western mines, soon gravitated here. Washington at that time was the place for the nation's elite to show their wealth, be close to power, enjoy the social season, and marry their daughters well. They built the grand mansions that still line Massachusetts Avenue. On the side streets, the 19th-century Washington brick rowhouses (like ours) took on special grandeur. Although some of DuPont Circle's grandest mansions are gone and others are now occupied by embassies, institutions and hotels, visitors and residents alike can still enjoy the special ambiance of a neighborhood created when the nation was in love with its capital city.
