  • Golden standard for luxury apartments in DC - amazing management team!

    December 20, 2022
    I've lived in DC over 12 years across multiple properties, and no other building even comes close to the quality of the Drake. The leasing and management team is PHENOMENAL. Without exception, they are the most professional, detail-oriented, and resident-centric management team I've ever interacted with; they consistently go above and beyond.
    Review from Apartments.com

  • Good Service, Great location

    July 23, 2017
    Moved in almost 3 years ago when they opened. Brand new everything. The building management, leasing office, and general support staff have always been super friendly and helpful. Great location. Never had any major issues. Sad to leave, but I want a dog :-)

    Fancy-pants apartments in the heart of Dupont. Everything is beautiful and brand new. If it had a pool and lower rent, it would be a dream.

The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on scale of 1 (below average) and to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider needs as part of the school selection process.
