About the event
Discover the hidden gem of Washington, D.C. with this exclusive mini walking tour of legendary Tilden Gardens! It’s a rare chance to explore one of the city's most storied and architecturally distinctive residential enclaves.
Nestled in the heart of Northwest DC, Tilden Gardens is a Pre-War masterpiece, a harmonious blend of stately Tudor Revival architecture and five acres of lush, private gardens. Designed by the renowned Warren brothers, Monroe and R. Bates, this iconic cooperative was the crowning achievement of two visionaries who helped shape Washington’s early 20th-century residential identity.
On this guided tour, you’ll uncover the fascinating history and design secrets behind these elegant buildings, from the unusual, character-rich clinker bricks that give the facades their textured charm, to the intricate craftsmanship hidden in plain sight.
Even President Harry Truman once called Tilden Gardens home. Come walk the same pathways around Tilden Gardens, and see why this enclave has remained one of D.C.’s most revered architectural treasures.
