Logan Circle is one of D.C.’s oldest neighborhoods and manages to be one of its hippest and trendiest, seamlessly merging the past and present. In the 1870s, Logan Circle was developed to emulate the feeling of a European city, intersected with wide tree-lined boulevards and interspersed with grassy parks like the eponymous roundabout — plus block after block of eclectic Victorian row houses. The Victorians remained relatively untouched by development, even when the neighborhood went through more than 150 years of history. In recent decades, Logan Circle and 14th Street, its commercial corridor, have returned to center stage with an abundance of cool restaurants, bars, art galleries, theaters, and stores. Logan Circle is known for its nightlife — including every kind of bar from dive to craft cocktail — as well as live music and the Studio Theater, which presents contemporary plays.
