Washington DC - Logan Circle, Washington DC City Info

The Logan Circle neighborhood, on and around the circle at the intersection of Vermont Avenue and 13th Street, N.W., is almost a textbook illustration of the beauty of the L’Enfant Plan’s vision for the evolution of the federal city. At the point where a diagonal state-named street crosses the underlying grid pattern of numbered streets, the creation of a large open urban space (the circle itself) is the focus of a graceful residential area. In the case of the Logan Circle historic district, whose late 19th-century character is preserved almost intact, the elegance and simplicity envisioned by L’Enfant and implemented by his successor Andrew Ellicott can be seen today.

This neighborhood, very close to downtown, is a delight for the pedestrian. Almost all the townhouses that line the circle and the streets radiating from it were built between for their prosperous owners between 1875 and 1900 in the Late Victorian and Richardsonian architectural styles. While the houses are varied in detail, displaying a fascinating array of turrets, porticos, and roof lines, their unity of scale and character give Logan Circle a unique charm. Visitors can easily imagine that they have gone back in time to the century before last. The neighborhood was originally very fashionable. After falling on hard times, it is now a hive of revitalization and once again becoming a prized place to live. A bronze equestrian statue of Union Major General John Logan is in the center of the circle. Logan, who also represented Illinois in the House of Representatives and the Senate, is buried in the Soldiers’ Home National Cemetery. As commander in chief of the veterans’ organization, the Grand Army of the Republic, Logan began the practice of putting flowers on the graves of the Civil War dead, an observance that led to the establishment of May 30th as the national Memorial Day.

South of Logan Circle, at 1318 Vermont Avenue, is the Mary McCleod Bethune Council House, a grand Second Empire house that was the headquarters and sometime home of Mary McCleod Bethune, founder of the National Council of Negro Women. An educator and national political leader, Bethune was one of America’s most influential African American women. The house, a National Park Service site, is now a museum and archives and an important place for studying the history of African American women and the black community.
