1901 Wyoming Ave NW

Completed in 1917, this seven-story cooperative embodies early 20th-century Beaux-Arts and Mission-influenced detailing by architect Arthur B. Heaton. The Altamont contains predominantly one-bedroom units and studios laid out with high ceilings, hardwood floors, significant moldings, and original wood-frame windows; many units retain period features such as decorative plaster ceilings, built-ins, and wood-burning fireplaces alongside selectively modernized kitchens and baths. Common areas emphasize preserved historic character: an ornate lobby with original terra-cotta floors and gilded arches, a reception/party room with plaster ornament, and a large landscaped roof terrace with city views. Building services include a 24-hour front desk/concierge, communal laundry facilities, on-site storage when available, and property management through the co-op board. Exterior amenities feature a furnished roof deck, street-level hardscape and lighting, sidewalks, and sprinklered landscaping. The co-op’s rules and financial structure include a presumptive minimum down payment (typically around 10%), board approval for sublets after a waiting period, and pet policies permitting small pets with weight limits. Located in Kalorama near Adams Morgan and Dupont Circle, the property offers immediate pedestrian access to restaurants, grocery options, transit links, and cultural institutions, blending a residential, historic atmosphere with urban conveniences.
