Around Lamond Riggs
Historic single-family homes, mostly built in the 1950s, make up the vast majority of housing options in the neighborhood. New mixed-use developments with condominium units and retail establishments are under construction or completing construction, offering modern amenities and upgraded features. The proximity of the neighborhood to the Fort Totten Metro station also means that a car is not necessary for residents who live near the Metro, making the area even more accessible.
National fast casual establishments are moving into the neighborhood, occupying the retail spaces being created in the new developments. New restaurants, bars, and coffeehouses are also popping up but more are constantly being added to meet the neighborhood's growing demand. Most of Lamond Riggs's culinary options are along Carroll Street, which offers cafes, bistros, Thai restaurants, and pizzerias.
Lamond Riggs is a community undergoing a transformation. Lamond Riggs is known for having larger lots than the surrounding D.C. neighborhoods. It is common to see families enjoying the neighborhood's green spaces and residents walking their dogs. Additionally, access to public transportation encourages a walking community. Once the services catch up to the population, it will be quite easy to handle daily errands on foot or by bicycle.
Lamond Riggs is mostly a residential community with dining and entertainment options offered outside of the neighborhood. The neighborhood is constantly welcoming new restaurants and bars, offering a local alternative to greater D.C. dining and entertainment options, but they fill up quickly as seating options are limited. The neighborhood is also home to a brewery, jazz club, and art galleries.
The new housing developments are offering amenities to inhabitants that encourage an active lifestyle. It is common to find a yoga room, fitness room, pool, and community or club room in the new mixed-use developments. You leave home but stay within your complex for activities. For those who want to venture outside their home, Carroll Avenue has plenty of options for brunch, while Takoma Urban Park and Lamond Recreation Center are perfect for a leisurely stroll to wrap up your weekend.
