Reed-Cooke

Reed-Cooke

Reed-Cooke is a section of disputed status in Northwest Washington, D.C. Its residents, its current councilmember Jim Graham, and its active civic association claim that it is an independent neighborhood. However, it is not on the city's list of "recognized" neighborhoods; for most official purposes, and in the minds of most Washingtonians, Reed-Cooke is a section of the Adams Morgan neighborhood.

Reed-Cooke is bounded by 18th Street to the west, 16th Street to the east, Florida Avenue NW to the south, and Columbia Road to the north. It is named for two schools in those boundaries, H.D. Cooke Elementary School and Marie Reed Elementary School.
