According to UrbanTurf, Cafritz purchased this 5,400-square-foot condo five years after a fire ravaged her home in Kent in August 2009. With the fire went much of her collection of contemporary African and African-American art and what The New York Times described as "one of this city’s more lively social hubs." See what replaced her home in this Curbed DC article.
