AME at Meridian Hill

Overlooking historic Meridian Hill Park, the 644-room Meridian Hill Hotel was finished in 1942 as the first government owned hotel built exclusively to house young women who moved to the District to fill government jobs during World War II. From 1969 to 2014, Howard University owned and operated the building as an off-campus dormitory known as Meridian Hill Hall. Designed in the International Style, the building evidences the emerging Modernism architecture of the Meridian Hill Neighborhood’s apartment buildings built in the mid-20th century. The building is recognized by the National Park Service as a contributing structure in the Meridian Hill Historic District and is listed on the DC Inventory of Historic Sites.

Sitting at the corner of 16th and Euclid Streets NW, Ame at Meridian was redeveloped in 2019 as an 8-story concrete frame and brick building located across the north precipice of Meridian Hill Park in Washington, D.C. offering 206 luxury rental units, and a series of modern amenity spaces. The building is now a modern boutique residential building featuring 206 new apartments with panoramic views of downtown Washington and a full suite of modern amenities.
