WSIC-Square 617

In the last Washington Sanitary Improvement Company (WSIC) post I searched the DC Recorder of Deeds for any other properties in Truxton Circle they may have owned besides the ones on Squares 552 and 615. I discovered Sq. 617.

On Square 617, they owned lots 169 to 183.

617-LC-1909

So that would be 14-42 O St NW.

This is 14 O St NW. Note the difference in lot number. It was lot 183 100 years ago.

This is 42 O St NW.

I’m noticing a particular building style here, but it looks irritating.
