7 Ways to Enjoy Your Navy Yard Rooftop

Summertime in the city is synonymous with rooftop lounging. And while it may be hard to decide on the perfect alfresco bar for a night out in DC, choosing the best rooftop to call home in Navy Yard is easy. With our penthouse level residence club, striking waterfront and Capitol views, and resort-style pool, there’s no end to the summer fun that can be had at Insignia on M. From entertaining friends to soaking up some sun, here are a few of our favorite ways to enjoy our rooftop this summer.

 

1. Hang poolside: An option that never gets old, our breathtaking pool is the perfect place to lay out, get your feet wet, or go for a dip.

5. Watch the game: Don’t have tickets? No worries — you can root for the home team from our rooftop lounge as the game plays on TV. Step outside after a Nationals game and you can even catch the famous Freedom Fireworks from the comfort of your own home.
