CLEVELAND PARK, WASHINGTON DC





Only a short Metro ride from the Mall and downtown is a bucolic residential neighborhood that has the feel of a small New England town at the turn of the 20th century. With its rolling hills, winding streets (some of which were laid out by the firm of Frederick Law Olmsted), and rambling frame houses with wrap-around porches, Cleveland Park still looks much as it did when it was designed as an upscale streetcar suburb described as the "Queen of Washington suburbs." Cleveland Park takes its name from President Grover Cleveland, who in 1885 bought an old stone farmhouse in the salubrious heights above the city and renovated it as a summer White House for himself and his young bride-to-be, Frances Folsom.

The elaborate Victorian make-over no longer exists, but some of the grand mansions of Cleveland park still stand, including Twin Oaks, the home of the founder of the National Geographic Society and now owned by the government of Taiwan, on Woodley Road; Tregaron, a 1912 Georgian Revival house on 20 wooded acres on Macomb Street that now houses the Washington International School; and Rosedale, at Newark and 36th Street, built in the 1790s by a friend of George Washington and the oldest house in Cleveland Park, now the headquarters for the international exchange organization Youth for Understanding.

Cleveland Park's unique character today is ideally experienced by strolling along its best-preserved streets within the designated historic district west of Connecticut Avenue?Macomb, Newark, Highland Place, and Ordway. The eclectic mix of fine architecture in the rambling wooden houses includes Queen Anne, Shingle Style, Classical Revival, and Mission Style. Good starting points for a walk are Washington National Cathedral, which anchors the neighborhood on its southwestern corner, and the Cleveland Park Metro stop, located in the midst of a commercial strip of restaurants and shops on Connecticut Avenue.
