Hi, neighbor!

Located within the 16th Street Heights neighborhood of northwest Washington, D.C., the 16th Street Neighborhood Association (SSNA) is a catalyst for community engagement for the more than 500 households within its boundaries. The Association’s mission is the promotion of the civic and social welfare interests of those living within its boundaries, through working together on common issues, the exchange of ideas and information, and celebrating the historic uniqueness of our neighborhood.

The Association’s boundaries are: Decatur St. NW on the north to Upshur St. NW on the south, and from 16th St. NW on the west to 14th St. NW on the east. Anyone living within these boundaries is eligible to become a member of the Association.

The 16th Street Neighborhood Association has a long history of building connections among neighbors through social events and community activism. The Association holds regular meetings; produces a quarterly newsletter that is distributed to each household and business within the boundaries; maintains listserve open to everyone within the boundaries; and holds numerous social events to promote cooperation, camaraderie, and community.

We welcome all who are interested in the celebration, preservation and evolution of our century old neighborhood to attend our meetings, join with us on common issues and have fun at our many events.
