The Wharf · Southwest Washington, D.C.
The Neighborhood
Waterfront Living. Urban Perspective.
The Wharf combines contemporary residences with the Washington Channel waterfront, restaurants, shops, parks, and live entertainment. For military buyers, the decision is also practical: which residence fits your budget, where you need to report for duty, and how long you expect to remain in the area.
Choose the Right Property
Compare views, floor plans, natural light, balconies, parking, building amenities, monthly condominium fees, and the financial details of each property. These can vary considerably between residences.
Consider Your Routine
The waterfront setting offers walkable access to dining, entertainment, shops, and public spaces. Consider how the location supports your everyday routine, not just your first impression of the neighborhood.
Future Rental Potential
If another assignment may take you away, evaluate the property's potential resale or rental appeal, applicable building rules, ownership expenses, and the possibility of holding the property after your relocation.
Location & Duty Station
Military Commutes from The Wharf
The Wharf's location along the Southwest Waterfront makes it a convenient choice for military personnel. Transit access is driven by two Metro options: Waterfront Metro Station (Green Line) and L'Enfant Plaza Metro Station (Green, Yellow, Blue, Orange, and Silver Lines). Walking distances, schedules, transfer times, traffic, and installation access vary.
