The $1,200 Gallery Place Sublet

One-bedroom rentals for $1,200 don’t really exist down by the Verizon Center, but individual rooms can be rented for that price. A “young female professional” is looking for a woman to sublet the master bedroom in her apartment at 450 Massachusetts Avenue NW starting on October 30th. The sublet would be for one year and the sub-lessee would have access to the building gym, pool and roof deck. With utilities, the total cost per month would come to about $1,325, and the eventual renter must meet a minimum income requirement of $41,000/year.
