Wardman Park has returned to its roots as a green oasis in the heart of Washington. The former site of the Wardman Park Hotel, which hosted presidents and employed a young busboy named Langston Hughes, has been transformed into one of DC’s most exclusive new addresses.
A New Icon in Woodley Park
Set on 9.5 lush acres at one of the city’s highest elevations, Wardman Park offers 867 residences across two striking towers—Aerie and Zephyr—designed by Shalom Baranes Associates. Inside, world-renowned designers Champalimaud Design (Aerie) and RVD (Zephyr) crafted interiors that frame panoramic city views and complement the surrounding greenery of Rock Creek Park.
Residences range from studios to three-bedroom homes, with sophisticated finishes including Italian-made cabinetry, quartz countertops, Bosch and Fisher & Paykel appliances and penthouse floor plans up to 1,819 square feet.
Resort-Style Living at Home
Wardman Park delivers a lifestyle more akin to a resort than a typical apartment community.
Each tower has community amenities including a gameroom and multiple lounges for coworking, hosting and enjoying the rooftop and surrounding views. Wardman Park is designed for social living—the rooftops each offer a spacious pool, cabanas, grilling stations, fire pits and an outdoor co-working area.
The expansive wellness center rivals a private club. A serene spa experience with a dry sauna, indoor lap pool and hot tub connects to a cutting-edge fitness center complete with turf training zones, cardio, weights, private studios and even a rock-climbing wall. The fitness center overlooks a sprawling courtyard the size of a football field, complete with bocce courts, outdoor kitchen, shaded cabanas, hibachi grills and a kids' play zone. Elsewhere on the property, pet owners enjoy a dedicated dog park.
Sought-After Serenity in the City
Steps from the National Zoo, Rock Creek Park and the Woodley Park Metro, Wardman Park blends ample green space with unmatched convenience. Just minutes from Adams Morgan, Dupont Circle and downtown, it offers residents a tranquil sanctuary at the heart of Washington, D.C.
From a historic retreat to a new kind of residential resort, Wardman Park has come full circle. Learn more and schedule a tour at wardmanpark.com.
