What You'll Find Here
Anacosta Heights
Dupont Circle
Hawethorn Village
River Dale
Anacosta Heights
Situated above the daily life of the city, Anacosta Heights is a tucked away suburb featuring extravagant neo-gothic inspired mansions. The inhabitants of this neighborhood often show their overwhelming wealth with sports cars lining their long, circular driveways, large pools, and manicured gardens. The homeowners of Anacosta Heights treasure their privacy as seen by the high iron gates to the security personnel present at every entrance.
Dupont Circle
Dupont Circle is a small suburban neighborhood settled within the serene portion of the southern portion of town. These four-bedroom, single-family homes feature back yards, porches, garages, and far more breathing space then the Village offers. This neighborhood often is more family orientated and even has organized events for children and the neighborhood as a whole.
Hawethorn Village
Settled in the middle of downtown, Hawthorn Village consists of several victorian inspired row houses just off the main street. Due to it's convenience to just about everything, the village can be a tad expensive to live within. However, the residents of this neighborhood often have two to three-story townhouses, often with a one to two-car garage. Many of the houses feature bay windows and/or rooftop terraces with a small fenced-in 'yard'.
River Dale
River Dale primarily consists of apartments that, despite their age and industrial appearing interior, still hold to the Victorian history that permeates the town. These apartments are often the cheapest option and sport scuffed, older wooden floors, open floor plans, visible beams, and the occasional brick wall.
You're a hard soul to save, with an ocean in the way
Posted on December 11, 2014 by Elenore Dorian
 and the crashes are heaven, for a sinner like me, but the arms of the ocean deliver me. I hadn't intended on moving into the city right before Christmas. Who wants to move to a new place where you don't know a soul around the time of year when you want nothing more than to be happy, excited, and share your feelings with anyone around you? Maybe it's just me, but I loved the Holiday season. My sisters were strewn over different continents but often tried to make it to one home for Christmas even though it wasn't something we really celebrated as children. The idea of family coming together was so idyllic to me, like it might be feasible to wake up one morning with all of my sisters, their families, my brothers, and me... All in one place. Would that be feasible? No, but the idea tasted sweeter than anything else I could think of. When my finals were over, I had immediately packed my bags and with very little help, found an apartment in a safe part of the city that my brother was located in. His twin was hundreds of miles away in our "hometown" in the United States, with no real desire to relocate with me. Davante and Finley had posted up in a city hours north, but the city was within reach for me. I had desperately wanted to visit them, to curl up and fall asleep in the safe arms of wherever it was they lived and whatever lives they had woven. The desire had become too much to bear; my bags were packed and shoved into the car before I could rationally explain it to my sisters. I needed a different city, a different life... One that included Dav and Finn. There would be a U-haul coming to the apartment that Davante had found for me soon. In it were the mere remains of the apartment I had lived in during school, gutted and boxed so that the apartment in Sacrosanct might feel at home. What did I care if some materialistic things showed up? Davante and Finley... They would be close. No longer would I feel separated from anyone who understood me, loved me... It was enough that I didn't mind spending the forseable future in an apartment alone. It meant that I would be able to spend time with both of them, and move forward with life in the most positive way possible! What was there to lose? With my car parked and the contents strewn on what would be my living room floor, I flopped on my back to stare at the ceiling with a slow, spreading smile beginning at the corner of my lips. I was here... I wanted to work through the entire place and clean it and make it spotless so that I wouldn't mind living in the building alone. But instead, I began in the bedroom by putting together my bed and the furnishings that made the room feel as safe and cozy as it could without the renovations that Davante promised. A fire place? God, I was so excited it was hard to stand myself. I had put music on, letting the soft songs emanate through the entire apartment. The acoustics were phenomenal, and it was impossible to keep myself from dancing with excitement. As I unpacked, it was impossible to keep myself quiet and so I added my own happy squeaks to the music playing. Nothing had felt more like home, and it was all mine... |
