Significance: The path of Massachusetts Avenue was largely determined by L'Enfant's plan with modifications made by Andrew Ellicott. One of the longest avenues in the city, it far surpasses the rest in the number of federally owned reservations along it more than forty. It also passes through numerous historic districts. From Florida Avenue to 17th Street, NW, it traverses the Dupont Circle Historic District; Scott Circle is within the 16th Street Historic District; Mount Vernon Square is an historic site; east of the Capitol, it traverses the Capitol Hill Historic District.

Survey number: HABS DC-703
