Kennedy-Warren Apartment Building
Kennedy-Warren Apartment Building
The Klingle Corporation
Washington, DC
Completed in 1931, the Kennedy-Warren has been characterized as the finest Art Deco apartment building in Washington, DC. Its first section was completed in 1931. In 1935, another section of 200 units was added but still left the original design only two-thirds complete. In 1987, Joseph Younger's original drawings were discovered and a decade later the owner moved forward with plans to complete the building. The building was essentially completed according to Younger's original design. The project also included the restoration of the existing lobby and other public areas to their former "Aztec-Deco" splendor.
