American University Park (AU Park) is one of a handful of D.C. neighborhoods in Upper NW section of D.C. The area is home to many families and a good public elementary school. Ideally located with an “in-town” feel next to Tenleytown metro, this area is home to Turtle Park, a landmark for families with little ones. The annual May Fair event at Turtle Park is a great way for potential homeowners to get acquainted with one of the heart and soul institutions of the neighborhood. There is a short stretch of shops and restaurants along Wisconsin Avenue that keeps this neighborhood really feeling like you live in town.
