History: Originally built in 1942, Wesley Housing substantially renovated Pierce Queen Apartments. Oil hot water heaters converted to gas, and heat pumps for heating and central air conditioning were installed. Roofs were replaced and new thermal windows added. Nine one-bedroom units were enlarged to one two-bedroom and eight three-bedroom units. Two of the apartments are accessible to persons with disabilities. Volunteers from Walker Chapel, St. Matthew's, Herndon, Arlington Forest United Methodist Churches, and DC Cares (300) painted the property. Gifts/discounts received from: Hechinger's, Duron Paint, Giant Food, and landscape designers Charles Fortuna and Diedra Smith. The approximate cost of the renovations was $1.05 million.
