DC Boundary Stones

This stone is located near the intersection of Western Avenue and Grafton Street in the Friendship Heights area of Chevy Chase, Maryland. Surrounded by a mix of residential homes and commercial buildings, this stone marks yet another point on the border between Washington, D.C., and the state of Maryland. Like many other boundary stones, it is generally enclosed in an iron fence for protection against damage or vandalism. The stone exists in an area that has seen significant development over the years, making it a quiet testament to the history of the District and its original borders. It stands as a silent observer of the changes that have taken place around it, while remaining a crucial part of D.C.'s historical landscape.
