The DC Office of Motion Picture and Television Development is pleased to honor the Hillcrest community in Ward Seven as the One City Location of the Month for May. Hillcrest, once known as “the suburbs” of the District of Columbia, is a community of rolling hills, manicured lawns, garden-styled condominiums, and red brick colonials and ramblers that provides a diverse number of residential landscape shots for film productions in the city.
Overlooking the Capitol on the northwest and Oxon Run Valley, Maryland, on the southeast, the drives and scenery of Hillcrest are a source of pleasure to motorists and community members, and it is often referred to as the best-kept secret of Washington.
