Meridian Manor - View this location on map ![]() Meridian Manor was designed in the Colonial Revival style by George T. Santmyers, one of Washington D.C. s most prolific apartment house architects. Built in 1926, it is a significant example of the speculative middle class apartment buildings constructed in the 1910s and 1920s adjacent to the 14th Street streetcar line. The building s design and architectural vocabulary characterized the work of developers and architects who attempted to capitalize on the proximity to the streetcar line in meeting the demand for solid, modestly appointed middle class apartment buildings. 1424 Chapin Street, NW, Washington , DC Historical |
