LATEST NEWS:
All apartments have been rented. Thank you for your interest.
Located on a quiet tree-lined street on Capitol Hill, this federal style 4-unit apartment building was designed by DC architect Matthew Giles Lepley in 1925. It retains much of its period details while incorporating many modern amenities.
Each apartment has:
its own washer dryer
2 or 3 large closets
central air conditioning
hardwood floors
fireplace (decorative)
eat-in kitchen
table-sized rear balcony
All tenants have full use of the rear yard with picnic table to enjoy an outdoor meal/drinks or to entertain friends. Green thumb? Each tenant has a dedicated garden plot to grow their own vegetables, if desired.
The building is only 3 blocks from Metro (Stadium/Armory - Orange, Blue and Silver lines), providing quick and easy access to just about anywhere in the area. Easy street parking - there is usually a spot on the block.
We are now SOLAR! - This is the ONLY rental in DC where tenants benefit from their own dedicated array of solar panels. See below for more details.

What tenants have to say:
From a tenant (2022)-
"I loved living at 116 16th , even though my stay was short. I had to move away for my new job...He truly cares about the building and his tenants. The creeping English ivy, boats in the yard, wonky rear gate, all add to it's unique character. I also really loved direct access to Dulles and Reagan because I travel a lot. I will really miss this special place."
From a tenant (2021)-
"I'd definitely say the neighborhood is quiet. It is safe if you're smart and stay alert. It's a city, so I never walk alone in the dark from the metro after 8:30 pm. But that may just be how I personally feel as a short female. The building is definitely quiet."
From a tenant (2022)-
"I've lived in Apt #3 for the past four years -- the apartment was perfect for my needs. Including (but not limited to) hosting friends for dinner, backyard birthday parties during the pandemic, morning coffee on the balcony, tons of sunlight for my (many) plants, and even had the space I needed to work from home. Mr A always was great with scheduling regular maintenance and responsive to any concerns. My rent was reasonable and did not increase during my stay. Other tenants are quiet, street parking is easy, and it's only a short walk to the metro."
From a tenant (2018)-
"I have thoroughly enjoyed my year in this apartment and have nothing but positive things to say about the space. The apartment is fairly priced, but I have decided to move to ... for ... reasons.
I want to thank you for what's been a terrific experience in this apartment. The building is welcoming and safe and the apartment is everything I could ask for in a 1-bedroom. When I moved in I was eager to have a space of my own and this apartment was exactly what I needed. Truthfully I'm disappointed to be leaving, but it is the right move for me at this time.
Please let me know how and when my assistance is needed as you search for prospective tenants...."
116 is now SOLAR!
We are proud to be the ONLY apartment building in DC where tenants are directly connected to their own dedicated solar panels. While tenants are still be responsible for electricity, their electric bills will be reduced by the amount of clean free energy their panels produces. And if they use less electricity than their solar array produces in a month, then they will get a credit from PEPCO.
Current tenants report approximately $50 typical reduction in their electric bills (which average $100), with some reporting occasional negative power consumption. Each unit produces 4.2 MWh in electricity per year. What does that mean in real terms? Each unit prevents 2,852 lbs. of coal from being burned every year. (Source epa.gov)
