		The name of its Metro stop, Brookland/CUA (for Catholic University of America), neatly sums up the special character of this leafy residential neighborhood in the northeast quadrant of the city that is home to the largest cluster of Catholic institutions to be found outside of Rome itself.
		Indeed, the neighborhood was once known as "Little Rome." Brookland takes its name from Colonel Jehiel Brooks, the early 19th century Marylander whose 150-acre farm became the heart of the middle-class community that exists today.
		In 1840, the Colonel built an elegant Greek Revival mansion, which still stands at 901 Newton Street, N.E., and called it Bellair, meaning "beautiful air." The neighborhood's reputation for clean, fresh air persisted well into the 20th century.
