The diamond is actually centered around 18th and C NW.

I don't know when or why, but at some point Georgia Avenue was moved to its current location from it's original location, Potomac Avenue. I have seen (but of course can't find right now) very old maps of DC that show what is now Potomac Av listed as Georgia Av, which makes sense, it was paced near the avenues for the other southern colonies at the time the district was created.
