University Yard

 

 

Located on H Street NW between 20th and 21st Street, NW
Washington, D.C. 20052

A quiet oasis nestled in the heart of an urban campus, University Yard is a favorite outdoor spot for students to study, relax and meet up with friends. It is also the site of major university events throughout the year, such as the annual Fall Fest concert and other performances. University Yard’s green space is studded with benches and trees. In addition, the center of University Yard is where the brick walkways of GW Law School and other academic buildings converge, making this a convenient place to spend time between classes.
