1836-42 18th Street NW - Determination Letter

Thursday, April 13, 2023
Letter of Determination

1836-42 18th Street NW - Determination Letter

This letter is to conform the substance of discussions with my office on March 10, 2023, and specifically pertains to the proposed construction of the addition of a pergola at the terrace summer garden on the second floor of an existing structure, hereinafter referred to as the ‘Project’. The lot is zoned MU-17 and is currently improved with a two-story plus cellar semi-detached commercial structure (restaurant and bar known as Vagabond). The property faces 18th Street NW to the east, and to the south faces a Public Alley that connects to 18th and 19th Streets NW.
