The Embassy of Pakistan in Washington, D.C. is the diplomatic mission of Islamic Republic of Pakistan to the United States. It is located at 3517 International Court, Northwest, Washington, D.C., in the Cleveland Park neighborhood.[1]

A chancery annex was located on 2201 R Street NW in the former house of Gardner F. Williams, built in 1906 and also designed by George Oakley Totten, Jr. [3]
