Chapman Stables is a one hundred and fourteen-unit housing community located in the Truxton Circle neighborhood of Washington, DC.  When the first residents began to move into the community in 2018, it marked the fifth unique adaptive reuse of the histroic structure in the last one hundred and twelve years.  In 1906, J. Edward Chapman constructed two one stody brick buildings to front as the sales offices fro his modest coal yard out back. 

Within a dozen years, the two sales offices on either end of the block were absorbed into a new two story structure that ran the full length of the property one hundred and eighty five feet from the edge of a narrow, unanmed alley on the east to the side wall of a two story row house on the west.  Over the next century, the building and property were developed into five unique and seperate adaptive reuses that included a horse stable, a service center for Model-T cars, a brewery, a  maufacturing plant and a home salvage company's warehouse.  Now in 2018, about two hundred people call the place home.
