Shaw’s stunning transformation continues. From Residential Architect:

“Developer JBG has hired the Seattle-based firm as the design architect for a 240-unit mixed-use project in D.C.’s rapidly gentrifying Shaw neighborhood. Occupying two sites across the street from each other.

For now the units will be rental apartments, with floor-to-ceiling windows and an average approximate size of 700 square feet, and common courtyards will top the 30,000 square feet of ground-floor retail.”
