But that's not all! The next day, Sunday, June 22, brings us the architectural walking tour that was originally going to be one of the Cleveland-Parkiest features of Cleveland Park Day -- a Walking Tour of the Architectural Gems of Connecticut Avenue. Now it's back with this announcement from the host, Cleveland Park Historical Society:
Due to Cleveland Park Day's weather cancellation, the Cleveland Park Historical Society is offering a rescheduled date of our walking tour featuring the Architectural Gems of Connecticut Avenue this Sunday, June 22nd. Our guide will be Steve Knight, President of the Art Deco Society of Washington. Steve will talk to us about the avenue’s graceful stretches of fine apartment buildings punctuated with active commercial centers. Join us as we get to know some of the architectural gems that make Connecticut Avenue—and Cleveland Park—so special. Highlights will include Sedgwick Gardens, the Broadmoor, some of the fine commercial buildings lining Connecticut Avenue, the Kennedy-Warren, and Woodley Park Towers.
The Art Deco Society of Washington is dedicated to preserving, educating, and celebrating the art, architecture, and cultural achievements of the 1920s and 1930s. In addition to being a practicing architect, Steve Knight organizes and leads popular walking tours exploring Washington’s Art Deco heritage.
When: Sunday, June 22 at 12:00–1:00 p.m.
Where: Meet between 3801 and 3901 Connecticut Avenue (on the east side of Connecticut Avenue across the street from Sedgwick Gardens).
The walking tour is free, but space is limited! Register here.
