555 Mass Ave Condominiums
Located at 555 Massachusetts Ave NW, Washington, DC 20001 | Mount Vernon Triangle
It’s big, luxurious, and located right in the heart of Mount Vernon Triangle’s booming resurgence. Named for its street address, 555 Mass Ave sits along Massachusetts Avenue between 5th and 6th Streets in an exciting Downtown DC area that has become a beacon for visitors and new residents alike in recent years. Developed by JBG Companies and designed by WDG Architecture, the 14-story condominium building was completed in 2005 and was slated to be called Sovereign House before the name was changed so as to avoid confusion with similarly titled projects in the developer’s portfolio.
555 Mass Ave is one of the more sizeable recent condo projects in the Mount Vernon Triangle area. There are 246 residences with a number of different floorplans to choose from, ranging from studios to two bedrooms and from around 455 to 1,400 square feet in size. The exterior of the building features a look not dissimilar to Beaux-Arts designs of yesteryear, albeit with some contemporary flourishes. Other recently completed largescale condo projects in Mount Vernon Triangle include City Center DC, City Vista, the Quincy, the Sonata, and the Whitman.
More About 555 Mass Ave, Washington, DC
The downtown area has seen a huge surge in construction in the modern era, spurred by partnerships between city planners and commercial developers. The Mount Vernon Triangle Community Improvement District is one such alliance, tasked with growing the neighborhood while still maintaining a tricky balance between historic and modern buildings. Inside 555 Mass Ave with its traditional façade, the condo units themselves are bright and modern with open layouts, hardwood floors, and walls of windows. The gourmet kitchens thread the needle between walk-in and the wall-hugging Euro style that have become so prevalent these days. With stone counters, oversized cabinets and stainless steel appliances, these attractive cook spaces allow plenty of room to create culinary feasts, and also offer ample pantry space. The bathrooms are similarly finished, and washers and dryer hookups are yet another welcome convenience. Select residences have balconies, while spacious penthouses at the top boast private roof decks.
This is a full service luxury building with plenty of amenities. Residents enjoy a staffed front lobby with concierge, as well as a club room with a bar and fireplace. There is also rooftop deck with swimming pool, lounge and dining furniture, gas grilles, and stunning cityscape views. If all that is not enough, consider the state-of-the-art fitness center, an E lounge, a library, secure parking, and extra storage. The location is also key, in a part of the city where boundaries melt away and vibrant neighborhoods like Mount Vernon Triangle, Penn Quarter, and Chinatown all seem to merge together. There are tons of shopping opportunities with top boutique retailers, sightseeing attractions including numerous national museums, live concerts and NBA basketball at the Verizon Center, and so many bars, bakeries and restaurants that it’s ridiculous!
