The Codman Carriage House and Stable is a historic building located at 1415 22nd Street NW (also listed as 1413-1415 22nd Street NW) in the Dupont Circle neighborhood of Washington, D.C. The industrial building was constructed in 1907 as a carriage house and stable for socialite and art collector Martha Catherine Codman, who lived a few blocks north in her home, later known as the Codman–Davis House. She commissioned her cousin, Ogden Codman Jr., an architect and prominent interior decorator who also designed her home. He designed it in a Second Empire style.
This building served as a carriage house and stable for ten years before it was converted into a garage. In addition to housing horses and later cars, the building contained living quarters for two of Codman's employees and their families. Codman later married and sold the building in 1940. It was expanded and remodeled as office space. For more than 25 years, the building housed a Goodyear store before the space was converted into a bar and restaurant. The building was nearly demolished in the early 1980s, but the plan was canceled. A gay bar, Badlands, opened in 1983 and was later renamed Apex. After Apex closed in 2011, the longtime Capitol Hill lesbian bar Phase 1 opened a second location in this building. The bar closed in 2013. The building was renovated and restored a few years later, and it now serves again as office space.
The Codman Carriage House and Stable was added to the District of Columbia Inventory of Historic Sites in 1995. It was designated as a contributing property to the Dupont Circle Historic District when the district's boundary was expanded in 2005. It is one of three former stables in the immediate area that are designated historic landmarks.
