The three apartment buildings have the same high-quality construction with the exteriors comprised of light brown (tan) brick.

Additionally, Van Ness North is one block east of the Van Ness/UDC Metro Station (Red Line). Van Ness North’s address is 3001 Veazey Terrace NW. This street begins at Connecticut Avenue and runs about one block east ending in a circular driveway in front of Van Ness North. This area has short-term parking for visitors and a landscaped fountain. The main entrance – on the building’s south side – is on the circular driveway and leads to the lobby which is on the fifth floor because the building is built into a hillside.
