C Street Center

The C Street Center is a three-story brick townhouse with twelve bedrooms, nine bathrooms, five living rooms, four dining rooms, and three offices located at 133 C Street. The property provides residential space and common areas for its residents.

Originally the building served as a convent for St. Peter's Church before later being used by Ralph Nader's Congress Watch organization. Afterward it was converted into residential housing for members of Congress.

The center hosts regular shared meals and prayer gatherings where members of Congress come together and interact. These occasions create space for personal conversations between politicians from different parties.

The house provides accommodation for members of Congress who pay a monthly contribution and receive support from volunteers. Visitors should know that it is a private residence with limited public access.

The building received substantial financial support from a foundation between 1994 and 2002 to support its residential programs. This funding enabled the facility to maintain and develop its operations over several years.
