Charles Richard Drew House was a home of Afro-American doctor Charles Richard Drew, whose leadership on stockpiling of blood plasma saved lives during World War II. It is located in Arlington, Virginia.
The house is primarily notable for its association with Dr. Drew from 1920 to 1939. It is a narrow two-story frame structure covered with wood clapboards and topped with a gabled roof. Originally a four-room house, the house was expanded with a two-room two-story addition during Drew's ownership. The house is arranged around a side stair hall, which is also the entry. From front to back the first floor comprises the living room, dining room and kitchen. Upstairs are two bedrooms and a den.[4]
The Drew House was declared a National Historic Landmark in 1976.[3][4]
