Schneider Triangle is a set of residential buildings designed and built by Thomas Franklin Schneider next to Washington Circle Park in Washington, DC. The twenty two buildings formed a complete block with a central courtyard. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1982, at which time, only 21 of the buildings remained standing.[2] It forms a triangle due to the street layout of DC. The Embassy of Tajikistan is located in one of the houses.
