The Southwest DC neighborhood underwent a remarkable transformation, from rustic fishmarket, tiny marina and aging yacht club to a premier waterfront destination for luxury living, dining and entertainment. The Wharf DC is the embodiment of luxury waterfront living.

Characterized by its modern architecture, artfully-designed boardwalks, and buoyant atmosphere, The Wharf DC offers a blend of urban sophistication + waterfront tranquility.

The neighborhood is not just a residential enclave, but a dynamic waterfront destination featuring upscale restaurants, entertainment, boardwalk attractions, marinas, two yacht clubs, many fine dining establishments, such as Del Mar, Phillippe Chow, Limani, Cru Classé Sea Table, and Officina, a host of other dining and cocktail options, elegant hotels and more.

The luxury condominium market at The Wharf reflects the neighborhood’s commitment to providing an ultra-luxury urban living experience. Elegant, upscale residences at Vio and Amaris offer Potomac River, monument and skyline views, top-notch amenities and a lively waterfront lifestyle. For those who enjoy a more casual approach to waterfront living, 525 Water abuts Waterfront Park.

The Wharf DC has become a coveted address for those who desire a premium waterfront lifestyle offering the convenience of urban living.
