History

The 2400 block of K Street was once the most prosperous section of what is now the Historic District.

It includes two salmon-colored brick buildings with projecting bays (originally Nos. 2424-2426, now marked No. 2430). They were built in 1885 for Louise A Veerhoff. They now serve as the Parish House for St. Paul's Church. No. 2424 has a diamond-pattern leaded glass transom window of the house.
