Ponce De Leon Apartment Building

The Ponce de Leon Apartment Building is a historic structure located in the North Cleveland Park neighborhood in the Northwest Quadrant of Washington, D.C. David L. Stern designed the structure in a combination of the Mission Revival and the Spanish Revival styles. The building was completed in 1928. It is an example of 1920s exoticism in a prominent apartment corridor in the city. The exterior features diapered brickwork, terra cotta tile roof, limestone portico and trim, and Moorish arch motifs. The interior features an intact lobby with a decorative plaster ceiling and a terrazzo floor. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1994.
