2540 Massachusetts Avenue: Kalorama Best Addresses
Located on Embassy Row in Kalorama, 2540 Massachusetts Avenue is luxury pre-war co-op that is featured in James Goode's Best Addresses, A Century of Washington's Distinguished Apartment Houses. The building features a distinctive circular glass and iron marquee positioned over a limestone framed front entrance.

2540 Massachusetts was designed by Harry L. Jones and features Georgian Revival architecture consistent with other buildings in the neighborhood. The building was developed by Monroe Warren and was originally called Army Navy due to the preponderance of officers who originally lived there.
