Kennedy-Warren Apartment Building, Art Deco apartment building in Northwest, Washington, D.C.

The Kennedy-Warren building spans eleven stories with limestone carvings, copper details, and brick construction along Connecticut Avenue between Cleveland Park and Woodley Park.

Construction began in February 1931 with a budget of 3.2 million dollars, but financial challenges during the Great Depression led to scaled-back plans.

The building reflects significant Mexican-influenced stonework designs and features original mahogany windows, wood floors, and decorative lighting fixtures throughout its corridors.

The structure contains 425 residential units ranging from efficiency to three-bedroom apartments, served by five elevators across fourteen total floors.

An early cooling system drew air from nearby parkland through the building, making it one of the first apartments in Washington with climate control.
