THE ALTAMONT Listings for Sale
Located in the Kalorama neighborhood and quite close to next-door Adams Morgan, the Altamont was completed in 1916 to great fanfare as one of the District’s grand residential buildings, with 27 oversized apartments. In 1949, the apartments were converted into 50 cooperative units ranging from studios to three bedrooms. Despite the fact that there are now nearly twice as many residences as there were in the building’s original era, floorplans can still be quite spacious. Two and three-bedroom units can exceed 2,000 square feet. The building had a makeover in 2014 with numerous updates to the common areas.
