Former D.C. Mayor Anthony Williams is finally a homeowner.
After renting during his two terms as mayor, Williams has purchased a luxury loft condominium unit in the revitalizing H Street area of northeast Washington.
Williams says he paid more than 1 million dollars for the two-bedroom apartment, which is more than 2,000 square feet and comes with a gourmet kitchen, two parking places and a balcony.
He and his wife, Diane, have rented in Foggy Bottom for years. They plan to move in this spring.
Williams says he never bought property when he was running the city because of "the political and financial pressures." The former mayor is now the chief executive of a real estate investment fund in Arlington.
