Monseñor Romero

Washington, DC

In 2008, the former Deauxville Apartments suffered a devastating fire which destroyed a majority of the building. In 2013, a renovation plan began that included reconfiguring the existing four-story apartment complex of 102 efficiency units down to 63 units to accommodate efficiency, one-, two-, and three-bedroom unit types.

Project Description

The building is named in honor of the assassinated El Salvadorian Catholic Church Bishop who was a champion of the poor and spoke out against poverty and social injustice. The historic renovation fulfilled promises made to residents by city officials that one day they would return to their homes.
