    **Investor/Developer Opportunity in Bloomingdale Historic District** 76 Randolph Place NW is a rare offering in the heart of Bloomingdale—an art deco-style, two-story, **six-unit multifamily apartment building** with untapped potential for thoughtful expansion. Situated within the Bloomingdale Historic District and designated a contributing structure (circa 1935), this blighted property offers the chance to restore and reimagine a unique piece of neighborhood history. While horizontal expansion is limited due to BRL restrictions and rear yard setback requirements, there may be a path forward for a vertically sympathetic third-story addition. According to Historic Preservation guidance, any proposed addition must remain compatible with the building’s original character, preserving its existing front parapet and massing. A well-designed, visually distinct, and sufficiently set-back third-story could be considered—particularly as part of a comprehensive restoration plan including facade improvements, historically appropriate doors and windows, and the removal of non-historic modifications. Notably, mansard roof forms are not suitable for this structure’s art deco design. Instead, a contemporary yet respectful addition that celebrates the original architecture may earn favorable consideration from the Historic Preservation Board. Seize this rare chance to develop in one of Washington, DC’s most sought-after neighborhoods. This **corner lot with an existing six-unit multifamily layout** offers exceptional potential with wide alley access—ideal for private parking, outdoor patios, or high-end unit reconfigurations. Set among Bloomingdale’s signature rowhomes and just steps from award-winning dining, green spaces, and public transit, this site sits in a high-demand rental market. With quick access to Metro, downtown DC, and major commuter routes, it’s a prime opportunity for developers or investors to maximize long-term value in a rapidly growing market. Bring your vision to life in one of DC’s most desirable and historic communities.
