Dupont Circle

Now the neighborhood is home to over 20,000 residents from all around the world.

Welcome to Dupont Circle

The international and artistic center point of Washington, D.C.
 
This lovely, walkable neighborhood sits right in the middle of NW DC. The Dupont Historical District was established in 1978. However, the neighborhood’s history stretches back much further. In 1871 work on Pacific Circle had begun. Later, a statue of Samuel Francis Dupont was placed atop the circle, but this was swapped out in 1921 for a double-tiered fountain with depictions of three figures representing the wind, the sea, and the stars. Commercial and residential buildings began to crop up in all directions of the Dupont Circle. Now the neighborhood is home to over 20,000 residents from all around the world. For those interested in learning more about the Washington, D.C. area, local museums like the Heurich House Museum can offer a guided step back into a bygone era in American history.
 
With this blend comes a variety of artistic talents and tastes. Examples of this melding of different artistic expressions and talents can be found all throughout Dupont Circle, from the neighborhood’s globally inspired cuisines to sites such as Dupont Underground and The Phillips Collection, where these expressions are impossible to miss.
