Historic Anacostia is DC's oldest continuously occupied neighborhood east of the river - a hillside community of Victorian-era rowhouses with sweeping views of the Capitol. Frederick Douglass's Cedar Hill estate sits above the commercial strip on Good Hope Road, anchoring the neighborhood's identity.
