Demonet Building, Victorian townhouse at Connecticut Avenue and M Street NW, Washington DC, United States
The Demonet Building combines a preserved Victorian townhouse with an octagonal tower and dome alongside a modern office building extension.
The original structure, built in 1880, remains the final unmodified Victorian residence on Connecticut Avenue between Dupont Circle and Farragut Square.
John Charles Demonet established a confectionery business in 1848 that served President Lincoln and General Grant during the Civil War period.
Located at 1155 Connecticut Avenue NW, the building maintains office spaces and commercial establishments with access to public transportation.
The building underwent a record-breaking real estate transaction in 1982, selling for 10 million dollars to enable restoration and expansion.
