Just south of Alexandria, near the intersection of Richmond Highway and Huntington Avenue, stands a sixteen story brown brick tower called the Huntington Creek Club. The tower shares the neighborhood with a few other high-rises, the most notable being Montebello at the rear on Mount Eagle.

Built in 1972, the architectural appeal of the building is in that awkward stage that occurs long after "new" but just before "vintage". This is of course a personal opinion, and others may disagree, but driving past the building on many occasions, it never struck me as particularly beautiful. But then, my work as a condo sales agent caused me to visit and closely examine the property and several units.
