McLean Gardens
Formerly a 75-acre summer retreat for John Roll McLean and his family, the estate's trustees sold the land to the federal government in1942 which used the property to build McLean Gardens, a garden-style dormitory housing complex for the rapidly growing number of defense workers hired during World War II. After the war, the Hartford Insurance Company bought McLean Gardens from the federal government and managed it as a rental property until 1970. In 1981, McLean Gardens was converted into DC's first condominium and continues to be popular with people who enjoy life in the park-like setting with shopping, restaurants, and entertainment close by.
