"A few months since the developer shared plans for this project with the community, Trammell Crow subsidiary High Street Residential is taking the first step toward redeveloping a prominent corner in Shaw.

The company has filed a planned-unit development (PUD) application to deliver a 90 foot-tall building with 230 residential units above roughly 7,440 square feet of retail at 7th and P Streets NW. The application also calls for a map amendment to rezone the site from moderate-density mixed-use (MU-4) to medium- to high-density mixed-use (MU-6)."

More than a year-and-a-half after the proposed apartments at the 16th Street Scottish Rite site survived an attempted challenge, it has withstood another.

Last week, the Mayor's Agent for Historic Preservation issued a ruling granting the subdivision application that will facilitate construction of a 150-unit development behind the Scottish Rite temple at 1733 16th Street NW (map).

Finally, a permit to get started on work at 65 I St. SW, the long, long, long-planned Randall School development. Lowe will preserve the existing building as a museum for the Rubell Family Collection and add 489 apartments. Permit is for sheeting and shoring.

A New 13-Unit Development Proposed for 14th Street

"It looks like the 14th Street residential pipeline still has room to grow, and a newly-proposed project comes with pandemic-friendly features.

Willard Partners is seeking concept approval to incorporate the façades of the attached commercial buildings at 2204-2206 14th Street NW into a six-story development that would deliver 13 units above 2,600 square feet of retail. Rather than having two elevators in the building common areas, the elevators would provide interior access to each unit to maximize the residential space in the building."

I was up at Union Market today and there are 7 large buildings under construction there right now. It's crazy. It looks like NOMA / Union Market is close to being built out, and so is Navy Yard. But we still have RFK / Reservation 13 and parts of Southwest to build on.
