As the capital of the United States, Washington, D.C. has 51 roadways which are named after each state and the territory of Puerto Rico. Many of these roadways are major avenues that serve as the city's principal traffic arteries. Every state-named roadway is an avenue except for California Street and Ohio Drive.
Organization
While streets in Washington, D.C. are generally laid out in a grid pattern, the state-named avenues often form diagonal connections between the city's many traffic circles and squares as envisioned in the L'Enfant Plan for the city. However, avenues named for Arizona, Hawaii, Mississippi, Oklahoma and Puerto Rico connect to no other state-named roadways. Avenues named for Connecticut, Georgia, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, New York, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, and Wisconsin continue into neighboring Maryland, often as state highways, but none of the state-named avenues continue into Virginia. Most avenues exist in one or two quadrants, except for Massachusetts and Virginia Avenues, which travel through three of the four quadrants; it is geometrically impossible for a straight street to exist in all four quadrants, though they exist in multiple sections.
Part-primary road and part-residential street which runs from Martin Luther King Jr. Avenue in Congress Heights to E Street in Benning Ridge, following a winding path.
Secondary road that runs from Canal to Loughboro Roads in Kent. One of four state-named roadways that does not connect to another state-named roadway. In 1947, Senator Carl Hayden proposed to build a four-lane divided highway called Arizona Avenue through the Glover-Archbold Park, from Canal Street in Georgetown to Wisconsin Avenue in Friendship Heights.[5] Hayden's proposed highway was not built; the path is now the Glover-Archbold Trail and the Massachusetts-39th Trail. Instead Weaver Street and Weaver Place were renamed Arizona Avenue in 1954[6] after a suggestion by the American University Park Citizens' Association.[7]
Residential street in Kalorama and Embassy Row. The main segment runs from Massachusetts Avenue to Columbia Road, but another short segment runs from 19th Street to Florida Avenue, one block east from the main segment. The longer street was originally T Street until it was renamed in 1901.[11] The shorter segment was originally V Street until it was renamed in 1911.[12] There used to be a California Avenue located in Burleith.[11]
Residential street that is one of the four avenues centered on the Capitol. The street has several intermittent segments: one runs in from Canal to H Streets in Southwest Waterfront. Another section in the same neighborhood exists for one block from Washington Avenue to C Street in front of the Rayburn House Office Building. A stretch north of the Capitol exists between Constitution Avenue and Columbus Circle. The trajectory is occupied by Northeast Corridor and Red Line tracks, except for one block between L and M Streets.
Major street in that was originally known as Boundary Street, the northern boundary of Pierre L'Enfant's original plan for the Federal City. In 1890, the city expanded beyond the borders of the original plan, and the street was renamed. The road runs from an intersection with Massachusetts Avenue and 22nd and Q Streets in Embassy Row along a winding path due to the city's topography, until 9th Street where the road follows a straight trajectory. The road terminates at an intersection with H Street NE near the Starburst Plaza intersection in Trinidad.
A major north–south artery that carries U.S. Route 29 in the District of Columbia and continues outside the District as Maryland State Route 97. Georgia Avenue begins in Columbia Heights north of Florida Avenue NW, which was the boundary of the Old City and is a continuation of 7th Street NW. Traveling northward, the street passes Howard University and Fort Stevens into Montgomery County, Maryland, where it carries. The total length of the road is about 24 miles (39 km), of which 5 miles (8.0 km) are in Washington, D.C. Georgia Avenue was originally named 7th Street Extended, and later Brightwood Avenue, before receiving its present name. Prior to this, Potomac Avenue in Southeast Washington was called Georgia Avenue.
Residential street in McLean Gardens. Runs from Cathedral Avenue to Rodman Street. There is also a discontinuous dead-end Idaho Avenue off of Tilden Street.
Street in Judiciary Square. Runs from 7th Street to 3rd Street. Previously ran from 12th Street, but portions were obliterated by the Federal Triangle complex. This street was originally named Louisiana Avenue. The original Indiana Avenue ran from 3rd Street to 1st Street and was demolished in the mid-1960s to construct the headquarters of the United States Department of Labor and the Center Leg Freeway. A short, noncontiguous portion of Indiana Avenue near the intersection of First Street and C Street is all that remains of the original route.
Street in Sixteenth Street Heights. Runs from 14th and Emerson Streets to Georgia Avenue and Varnum Street. There is also a nearby stretch from Piney Branch Road to Gallatin Road near 16th Street.
A key thoroughfare that runs from through Petworth. It begins at Eastern Avenue, then crosses Blair Road. Later it crosses Missouri Avenue before meeting Sherman Circle, where Crittenden Street, Illinois Avenue, and 7th Street intersect. It crosses Georgia Avenue, where it exits the Petworth neighborhood. After crossing 13th Street it ends at Spring Road, right near the northern part of Columbia Heights. It runs parallel to New Hampshire Avenue.
The northern counterpart to Washington Avenue. Though only a few blocks from the capitol, was not in L’Enfant’s original plan. Runs from 2nd Street and Constitution Avenue to Columbus Circle. In the 19th century, much of present-day Indiana Avenue was named Louisiana Avenue.
A diagonal avenue that begins Independence Avenue and 17th Street, runs along the Southwest Waterfront, has an interchange with Interstate 395, and ends at 6th and M Streets.
Along with Delaware, Pennsylvania, and New Jersey Avenues, Maryland Avenue is one of four avenues centered on the U.S. Capitol. It exists in several intermittent sections, including one running from 12th Street SW one block in a cul-de-sac in a development built over railroad tracks, from 7th to 1st Streets SW, in front of the Capitol, and as a major street running from 1st Street NE through Capitol Hill and the Starburst Intersection to Carver Langston. The portion from Constitution Avenue NE to Bladensburg Road NE once carried U.S. 1. There are plans to make the section along the railroad tracks continuous within the Federal Center Southwest neighborhood. Until 1992, an entrance to the National Arboretum existed at the easternmost terminus of Maryland Avenue.[26]
Major traffic-carrying artery. One of only two avenues in the District to go through three of the four quadrants and only state-named roadway to touch two of the District's borders. The largest segment begins at 19th Street SE in the Barney Circle neighborhood, passes through many of the major circles and squares in Washington and runs along Embassy Row, before leaving Washington at Westmoreland Circle, where it continues into Maryland as Maryland State Route 396. This main segment runs 8.4 miles in Washington and an additional 2.3 miles in Maryland. A smaller segment (1.6 miles) runs east of the Anacostia River from 30th Street in Greenway to Southern Avenue.
Street that runs from South Capitol Street in Congress Heights to Southern Avenue in Oxon Run Park, generally parallel to Alabama Avenue. One of four state-named roadways that does not connect to another state-named roadway. Before 1908, it was named Hamilton Road.[27]
Street that runs from Military Road and 14th Street in Brightwood to North Capitol Street and Riggs Road in Petworth. Until 1937, it was named Concord Avenue.[28] In the mid-19th century, Missouri Avenue was located near the Capitol Building.[29]
Street in Langdon that runs from Rhode Island Avenue to Bladensburg Road. There is also a discontinuous dead-end Montana Avenue off of Franklin Street, between 5th and 6th streets.
A thoroughfare that runs from Oregon Avenue in Chevy Chase, passes several circles and American University, and transitions to Loughboro Road at an intersection with Chain Bridge Road. Named Chain Bridge Road until 1906.[30] A short non-contiguous section, which lies southwest of the main route of Nebraska Avenue extends off MacArthur Boulevard NW and connects with Sherier Place NW.
Street in Northwest Washington. Begins at F St NW in Foggy Bottom outside the Kennedy Center and continues to 15th Street NW and Florida Avenue NW in Columbia Heights. A second section, parallel to Kansas Avenue, runs from Park Road NW in Columbia Heights to Eastern Avenue NE in Lamond Riggs, where it continues as Maryland State Route 650. The southern section is 1.9 miles, and the northern section has 2.8 miles in D.C. and an additional 20+ miles in Maryland.
Along with Delaware, Pennsylvania, and Maryland, one of four avenues centered on the U.S. Capitol. Segmented into two sections: one runs from Florida Avenue in Shaw, Washington, D.C. to Constitution Avenue outside the Capitol. The other runs between Independence Avenue and N Street near the Navy Yard.
Major avenue whose main section runs from 15th Street near the White House into Maryland, where it becomes the John Hanson Highway. From 6th Street to Maryland, it carries U.S. Route 50. A smaller one-block section exists on the west side of the White House in Foggy Bottom.
A residential road in Manor Park that is not as long or as heavily used as South Dakota Avenue. Runs from an intersection with Kansas Avenue and Blair Road to an intersection with Sheridan and 3rd Streets. Originally continued northwest to Georgia Avenue, but a Senate bill eliminated that portion in 1912.[31]
A road that loops around West Potomac and East Potomac Parks between the Lincoln, Jefferson and FDR memorials. In the 19th century, Ohio Avenue was a street in the Federal Triangle area. Formerly Riverside Drive, the road was renamed Ohio Drive in 1950.[32]
Street in Kingman Park that runs from 21st Street to Benning Road. One of four state-named roadways that does not connect to another state-named roadway.
Street in North Chevy Chase that runs from Military Road, along the west side of Rock Creek Park to Western Avenue. Until 1938, it was named Daniel Road.[33] The original Oregon Avenue was in Shaw and was renamed Swann Street NW in 1938.[33]
A short road along the Metro tracks which stretches for about five blocks from Taylor Street to the intersection of 6th and Buchanan Streets. At one time street signs named the street ""Porto Rico Avenue"".
A major artery that begins at M Street and Connecticut Avenue in Downtown, goes through Logan Circle, exits the District in Woodridge, and continues for a couple miles in Maryland. For much of its length, it carries U.S. 1.
A thoroughfare in that runs from Riggs Road in Lamond Riggs to at New York Avenue in Fort Lincoln. A short non-contiguous section, which lies northwest of the main route of South Dakota Avenue extends off New Hampshire Avenue and terminates at a cul-de-sac.
Street in Benning Ridge that is segmented into three sections: from Ridge Road to East Capitol Street, from Nash Street to Pennsylvania Avenue, and from 29th to 27th Streets.
One of only two avenues to go through three of the four quadrants, which exists in several intermittent segments. One runs in Foggy Bottom from the Rock Creek and Potomac Parkway to Constitution Avenue. Another section runs from 7th Street to 2nd Street, and one final section from South Capitol Street to 9th Street, alongside the Southeast Freeway and the CSX tracks.
Street which like its counterpart, Louisiana Avenue, is near the Capitol but not in L’Enfant’s parade. The avenue was originally occupied by a canal, but now runs from Independence Avenue and E Street, and serves as a connection between Capitol Hill and Interstate 395. At one time, it was called Canal Street, while a street named Washington Drive existed along a part of the National Mall. Along with Adams Drive, it was converted to a dirt path from the Capitol to the Washington Monument.
