Michigan Park

Michigan Park is a neighborhood in Northeast Washington, D.C.. It is bordered by Gallatin Street NE to the north, 6th Street NE to the to west, Taylor Street NE and Michigan Avenue to the south, and South Dakota Avenue to the east. The adjacent neighborhood (to the northeast), across South Dakota Avenue, is called North Michigan Park. Although both neighborhoods are part of the same Advisory Neighborhood Commission, they are two separate neighborhoods. Historically, the reason for the separation was that Michigan Park was a white neighborhood in segregated Washington, while North Michigan Park was a black neighborhood. Michigan Park is home to Providence Hospital.
