The Cuban Embassy in Washington, D.C. is the diplomatic mission of Cuba to the United States. It is located at 2630 16th Street Northwest, in the Meridian Hill neighborhood.[1] The building was originally constructed in 1917 as the Cuban embassy, and served in that capacity until the United States severed relations with Cuba in 1961.[2][3] On July 1, 2015, U.S. President Barack Obama announced the formal restoration of diplomatic relations between the United States and Cuba.[4] The building resumed its role as the Cuban Embassy on July 20, 2015.[5] The U.S. government waived ambassadorial representation, opting for a Chargé d'Affaires as their diplomatic envoy.
