Washington DC ~ Healy's Pharmacy ~ 1890 ~ Mass Court Apartments ~ Facade
Once home to Healy's Pharmacy, this corner building at Massachusetts Avenue and 3rd Street, N.W. was built in 1890 by Julius Germuiller, a son of German immigrants.
This structure—long vacant and now surrounded by huge new buildings—is typical of hundreds of houses and commercial buildings in late 19th-century Washington that were built by this Washington-born German-American architect/builder, the son of German immigrants and parishioners at St. Mary's Church.
Thanks to the tireless efforts of Ray Milefsky, we now know considerably more about Germuiller's life and career.
For several years, the mortar and pestle on the rooftop disappeared. It's good to see it has returned to the building.
Spectacular property located just one block from the Judiciary Square Metro Station in the Penn Quarter area of Washington, DC. Enjoy our fully-equipped fitness center with cardio theater, rooftop track and fitness area, heated rooftop pool with sauna; all while experiencing our dramatic city and landmark views. Spacious one bedroom fully-furnished and accessorized apartments within a building that takes you from the ordinary to the unexpected. Everyday you'll enjoy views of our nation's capitol that include the Capitol, Washington Monument and other breathtaking cityscapes.
