Burleith
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Burleith is a moderately upscale neighborhood in Washington, D.C. It is bordered by Wisconsin Avenue to the East, Reservoir Road and the Georgetown University campus to the south, Whitehaven Park to the North and Glover Archbold Park to the West. The neighborhood is home to some Georgetown students. Relations between the student community and year-round residents have been somewhat strained in recent years, though the university has been working hard to improve relations. Burleith is also home to the French embassy.
The western third of Burleith is a 24-hour gated community called Hillandale; some consider this a separate neighborhood but it is technically part of Burleith. Residents of Hillandale include U.S. Senator Joseph Lieberman (I-Connecticut).
