2 Extraordinary Luxury Neighborhoods Close to Bethesda
January 7th, 2010 by Kevin Koitz
I recently posted about “Extraordinary Greater Bethesda Luxury Neighborhoods” in one of our other real estate news outlets and thought I needed to include a few other stand out neighborhoods in Northwest Washington DC real estate spectrum. So here goes…
Massachusetts Avenue Heights
The small neighborhood of Massachusetts Avenue Heights is home to the Washington National Cathedral as wall as a small, triangular residential section located between Garfield Street and Massachusetts Avenue. Its prime location (picture Hollywood Hills of DC) and its exclusive number of available homes are just two of the reasons why Massachusetts Heights is such a desirable neighborhood.
Cleveland Park, Washington DC
Cleveland Park, DC real estate features some of the finest homes and townhomes in the DC Metro area, but its personal properties aren’t the only reason so many people are attracted to this neighborhood. Rather, the extensive amount of green space that surrounds the neighborhood and its rich history are certainly major draws as well. In fact, the neighborhood was listed as a Historic District in 1987. A variety of exquisite architectural styles reflecting this history can be found within the neighborhood, including Queen Anne, Victoria, Mission and Classical Revival homes.
Washington DC Ranked 2nd Most Literate City US?

Washington DC Edged Out By Seatle As “Literacy Town USA”
Congrats Washington DC. And congrats to Dr. Jack Miller who is responsible for a relatively thorough study. I normally argue that the metrics used to measure “city rankings”, are rushed and rife with confounding factors. And this list isn’t a total exception. But Dr. Miller, President Central Connecticut State University, uses “intelligent” parameters to reach his consensus.
Greater Bethesda Maryland Was Left…So Was Madison WI
Well…to be fair, Bethesda is officially “town”…and Bethesda’s population disqualified them anyway (city had to had a population of at least 250,000. But I would’ve loved to have seen us in the mix. Another notable left out of the study was Madison Wisconsin — precluded because of a population just $25,000 short of the minimum $250,000 threshold.
“How” Washington, DC Delivered
Literacy rankings were based of of 6 principal metrics:
- Bookstores (per 10,000 population)
- Education Level
- Internet Resources
- Library Support, Holdings, and Utilization
- Newspaper Circulation?Periodical Publishers
>> variables explained in depth
More critque to come — but until then, any thoughts on rankings below?

Atlanta + Austin + Miami – Bethesda = W Condo Residences
November 14th, 2009 by Kevin Koitz
…By the Transitive Property I think…Bethesda is begging for a W Residence Hotel. But since there isn’t one there yet, I wanted to give you a little peak at some of the cities where they have been built or are in pre construction. Take a look at this video of the Residences in Austin, Atlanta, and Miami in that order. Unfortunately, the video doesn’t want to render (sorry) but here’s a link to the official “W Residences” website. Take a look around. Great site…no Bethesda
