T. YlNG north of Massachusetts, Avenue
l. and adjoining Rock Creek Park and
Observatory Circle, is the famed Villa
Section of The Heights, that portion of the
tract laid out to accord with the natural
contour of the land. Through the very heart
of this area beautiful Parkway has been
reserved and dedicated to the District. This
Parkway forms spur of Rock Creek Park
which skirts the entire eastern end of the
Heights.
The roadways wind around the villa
sites in graceful curves and on easy grades.
The terraces have been planted with wild
honeysuckle and every detail adding to
the natural beauty has been incorporated
into the plan.
These sites vary in size from one
quarter acre to nearly nine acres in extent.

l. ington real estate values knows of the
development of Dupont and Sheridan Cir
cles. History is bound to repeat itself at
Observatory Circle, the axis around which
Massachusetts Avenue Heights swings.
Here will be homes of the same palatial
magnificence as those which now adorn
Sheridan Circle. Right now, before the
grading is completed, one such home has
been planned and others will surely follow.
That sort of development absolutely
assures an increase in value. Compare
the prices in Observatory Circle with those
of Sheridan Circle. Then compare the
natural advantages of the two as regards
location and elevation.

CLOSE to both Observatory Circle and
