Quincy House (Brookland)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Quincy House is a home to Catholic graduate students from across North America, located in the historic Brookland neighborhood of the District of Columbia.
Within easy walking distance of the Catholic University of America, the Basilica of the National Shrine of the Immaculate Conception and the Franciscan Monastery, Quincy is something of an epicenter of Catholic young adult culture, best known for its celebrations of the Christian Sabbath, the Lord's Day, and for its monthly coffee house events, of which recordings are regularly produced and posted online. A "Best of Quincy, vol. 1" is anticipated within the next year.
Current residents of Quincy House are known to study philosophy, theology and national security at CUA,[1] the John Paul II Institute for Studies on Marriage and Family,[2] and The Institute of World Politics,[3] respectively.
Famous Quincy-ites include Sean G. Lewis, now a professor at the Catholic University of America[4] and Aaron R. Linderman, two-time Arizona State Geography Bee Champion.[5][6]
The quasi-official women's counter part to Quincy House may be found a few blocks away on Monroe Street.
