They don't, in fact, build them like they used to
1400 is old 1950s construction, red brick over a solid concrete shell.
When they built this baby, Central Air was what you found in Bing Crosby's lungs, but it was built with all the amenities, steam heat, electricity, AND copper telephone wires.
That said, the building is in remarkable shape, it's been well maintained, rooms are taken out of service and renovated between tenants, and it has been rewired with fiber optic cable.
The heat is still steam, but there is a window AC unit in each... apartment and unlike a lot of new construction, the kitchens all have gas stoves.
The company that owns the building bundles all the utilities except internet/phone/cable into the rent, which is a good deal.
The floors are hardwood and they're gorgeous.
It's a beautiful neighborhood, and there is shopping/restaurants nearby.
There is a bus stop half a block away, and residents can get permits for on street parking for their DC registered vehicles.
