Lincoln Heights is a spacious suburban area in east D.C.
In the eastern corner of DC, Lincoln Heights has long served as one of the capital’s central public housing areas. Revitalization efforts are currently underway, and an increasing number of people are turning to this neighborhood to join a longstanding community with its own identity and convenient ties to DC. “In the district, there’s not a lot of land,” says Brian Marzo, real estate agent for Keller Williams Preferred Properties. “A lot of people are getting out of the high-rise buildings and moving to areas like Lincoln Heights for more room to move around and have more of a small community experience close to the city.”

Multi- and single-family homes coexist in Lincoln Heights
The community began with a collection of low-rise apartment buildings, but Craftsman-style bungalows have spread across the area for diversified designs along tree-lined sidewalks. These tight and winding roads also have duplexes and town house properties providing increased square footage and lower price points. New developments continue to bring modernized town houses and apartment buildings to Lincoln Heights under the guidance of DC’s revitalization plans, including the conversion of the historic Stands Theater into a brand-new high-rise apartment complex. Prices in Lincoln Heights range from $250,000 for a duplex unit requiring minor renovations to $600,000 for a fully upgraded bungalow-style build. “It's an easy zip code,” Marzo says. “Lots of new buildings, and you usually get a better price point when you move in early, so it’s up and coming with commutability. Moving here is a functional play.”

Highways, the Metro and recreation spaces are nearby
Lincoln Heights sits only nine miles outside the cultural mecca of DC, so you can reach the city center while avoiding interstate traffic by driving over the Whitney Young Memorial Bridge or hopping on the Capitol Heights metro stop nearby. But Lincoln Heights can provide a day of fun all on its own. Marvin Gaye Park frequently hosts community events and festivals, and people often visit to hike along nature trails and let the kids play on the water-themed playground. The Riverside Center sits next to the park, and community leaders regularly organize programs promoting urban sustainability and cultural celebrations, like their model urban farm and weekly African drum and dance class.
Bike share stations are abundant throughout Lincoln Heights.
