425 Review

Love the apartment building, amazing and unique duplex floorplan and best amenities in the city. Could use better management staff but great to have a doorman. Parking in garage is very pricey though. Conveniently located and great for public transportation as well.

Not the best

Wouldnt necessarily suggest for families. Lots of young people, who like to party, which makes the amenities, specifically the pool area not so family friendly. The management company ignores broken fitness machines for some time and ignores the fact that amenity fees are charged and machines remain broken for months upon months.

Good amenities, management, residents

Lots of social activity going on, the crowd here isn't afraid to come out to the rooftop to have fun and play. Management is accomodating and often puts on social events, mixers, etc. Convenient location, especially if you work in downtown. It's a bit pricey--but, then again, so is everything in this area. They often have move-in specials.

425 Mass is a great place to live

I have been living at 425 mass for 5 years. Its a nice community in a great neighborhood. The management is usually pretty professional. The building's amenity's are great as far as the roof area, pool, gyms. I would definitely recommend 425 to a friend.

High-end feel without the price tag

I've lived in 425 Mass for two years and love it. The amenities are fantastic - pools, gyms, 24 hour concierge, fob entry, etc. Maintenance is excellent and luckily I haven't had to use them very often since the apartments are well-built. The walls are thick so you never hear your neighbors (or roommates!). Granite countertops, hardwood floors, nice appliances, all the bells and whistles. You get great bang for your buck and enjoy an awesome location (5 minutes from the metro) for a relatively cheap price, at least by DC standards.

New building in DC's Chinatown

This apartment has wood floors, granite counter tops and floor to ceiling windows in the living space. The roof is one of the best spots in DC, overlooking the Capitol Building and Monument. It also has two pools on the roof with grills and socialization spaces. Underground parking is available, but expensive at $225 per month. The commute to the McLean office is about 45 minutes on the metro, but it is worth every minute to live in the city!

Mount Vernon Square Reviews

45 reviews
I love the location - pretty close to everything you want - shopping, entertainment, restaurants, bars, public transportation, etc. I also like the residential feel of the area, unlike apartment buildings down in Chinatown. Unfortunately, there is some higher rates of car break ins and robberies in the neighborhood, due to a relatively affluent population adjacent to lower income areas. Additionally, there has been a crackdown on prostitution in the area - I saw a few women in the early morning hours, and I am glad the police are focusing on this issue. Other than the normal problems of lack of parking, a very attentive police team writing tickets, I love the area!
As previously mentioned, the neighborhood is great with lots going on, tons of restaurants and the Safeway right next door. Super accessible to everything, especially since we're a 5 minute walk from the Gallery Place metro (red line).
I really love Mount Vernon Square as a neighborhood. It is really close to the national mall, great restaurants, shopping, and you have access to multiple different metro lines.
Lots of restaurants, multiple grocery stores nearby and right near 14th street. Metro is a bit limited outside of the green and yellow line but bus lines are very accessible
Safe area close to Chinatown to the east (union station past that) and then 14th street corridor to the west (dupont past that). You can walk almost anywhere in NW DC.
The area is growing so quickly! New restaurants and buildings are popping up all the time. It's also very easy to get any part of the city from the neighborhood.
I enjoy having tons of restaurants and bars around---from neighborhood pubs, to fast casual restaurants, to sit down joints, to cafes. There's a lots to like.
#1 way to describe living downtown/mt vernon square is convenience. There's a 24 hour Safeway, I can walk nearly everywhere, and always feel safe walking.
