Map of Adams-Morgan

One of Washington's most ethnically diverse and interesting neighborhoods, Adams-Morgan holds many offbeat restaurants and shops, and a brash and amazingly diverse bar-and-club scene. The neighborhood's grand 19th-century apartment buildings and row houses as well as its bohemian atmosphere have attracted young urban professionals, the businesses that cater to them, and the attendant parking and crowd problems.
