Colonial Village is an area innorthwestWashington, D.C., built in 1931 with 80 residences. The homes are reproductions ofcolonial buildings, such as theMoore House, whereGeneral Charles Cornwallis surrendered atYorktown.^[1] The community was mostly Protestant, in contrast to the nearby 220-houseNorth Portal Estates, which was a mostly Jewish neighborhood.^[1] When the community was first constructed in 1931, the neighborhood was exclusively populated by white Protestants as black and Jewish people were prohibited from living in Colonial Village. The land on which Colonial Village lies on, was once the 145 acre plantation of slaveowner Phillip Fenwick.^[2] After the mid-20th century, both Colonial Village and North Portal Estates became part ofShepherd Park.^[1]
