Washington, DC

NOVEL 14th Street is where classic design meets eclectic charm at the vibrant crossroads of 14th and U Street. Nestled in one of D.C.’s most dynamic and historic neighborhoods, NOVEL 14th Street offers a fresh approach to urban living, surrounded by buzzing nightlife, distinctive boutiques, and celebrated eateries. Thoughtfully designed studio, one-, and two-bedroom apartments seamlessly blend modern luxury with vintage character, offering residents a unique opportunity to experience community, history, and contemporary style—all in one of the city’s most coveted locations.

Purpose-driven, experienced, and human-focused, the partnership of Crescent Communities and RCP Development Company brought NOVEL to Southeast DC to create a welcome gathering place for residents and visitors alike. Supporting a goal of neighborhood inclusivity alongside work-from-home convenience, NOVEL South Capitol redefines luxury living with flexible co-working, dining, socializing, and more—all within steps of Washington’s hottest attractions and close to transportation links across the region. Through careful consideration of texture, light, and flow, the design team pushed the boundaries to create a warm, welcoming space that feels simultaneously crisp and modern. Where bright metallic accents are softened by cascading water and bold mid-century angles are softened by comfortable fabrics, the details grab attention and invite visitors to settle in. The result is a modern, sophisticated backdrop layered with texture and color to delight, surprise, and welcome.
