Ingleside Estate
Mount Pleasant's residential streets are filled with beautiful old single-family homes and rowhouses, and several old estates. This former 19th century estate, which was far larger than the present day property, now houses what is probably the city's most architecturally significant retirement home!
Tiny local gem of a movie theater in a converted townhouse. Features a bar and screenings of indie and other obscure films.
A beautiful park with a community garden, dog park, basketball court, chess tables, and children's area.
This is a sadder mural, a memorial by Aniekan Udofia to two teenagers who were murdered near this park.
A colorful house dedicated to teaching and encouraging art in the community. Features a small art gallery showing exhibits of works by local youths.
The Adams Morgan Mural
"A Town without Murals." is an odd title in these parts—clearly, it isn't referring to Adams Morgan. On the contrary, there is an element of Pinochet's Chile here, as the mural was painted by two asylum seekers from that oppressive regime, and the caption's "demuralized people" likely refers to that society. The diverse group of people in the mural, however, resemble Adams Morgan.
