History of Brookland
Washington DC's Brookland neighborhood is the closest thing you will find to the Vatican on the Potomac River. Nicknamed "Little Rome," and for good reason, it is the home to more than 60 Catholic institutions, from the grandeur of the Franciscan Monastery to the reflective beauty of the Shrine of the Immaculate Conception. Catholic University of America and the Pope John Paul II Cultural Center also make their home in this upper Northeast neighborhood.
North America's first and most comprehensive bonsai museum can be found at the U.S. National Arboretum. It is a 446-acre natural paradise that features enchanting landscaped gardens, fascinating seasonal displays, intriguing aquatic plants and a unique, two-acre herb garden.
Brookland is a neighborhood in the upper Northeast quadrant of Washington, D.C., historically centered along 12th Street NE. Brookland is bounded by 1st Street NE to the west, Rhode Island Avenue NE to the south, and South Dakota Avenue to the east. Michigan Avenue is the northern boundary between 3rd and 18th Streets. Brookland is served by the Brookland-CUA station on the Red Line.
