From the Mayor’s Office:

“Mayor Muriel Bowser and community members celebrated the groundbreaking of Canopy Row, a residential development that will bring 141 family-sized homes to the former Walter Reed Army Medical Center campus in Ward 4. The project will include 47 traditional townhomes and 94 stacked units ranging from two to four bedrooms. Twelve homes will be reserved for households earning at or below 80 percent of the Median Family Income (MFI), creating affordable homeownership opportunities in one of the District’s most significant redevelopment projects.

“Almost 20 years ago, Ward 4 residents put forth a strong vision for this campus — for a mixed-use community that would deliver housing, retail, park space, and more to our community. And over the past decade, I have been proud to deliver on that vision,” said Mayor Bowser. “We didn’t just redevelop a campus, we built a neighborhood. And with 141 family-sized homes and new pathways to homeownership right here at Walter Reed, we’re going to help more Washingtonians become homeowners and build a future for their family in DC.”

Canopy Row, built by Urban Atlantic Development, NV Homes, and Triden Development Group, will deliver a mix of traditional townhomes and stacked two-over-two residences designed to meet the growing demand for homeownership opportunities among families and middle-income households in the District. Construction is expected to begin this summer and conclude in 2028. (more…)

Thanks to a reader for sending this morning.

This space was previously home Southern Hospitality and before them the longtime home of  Adams Mill Bar and Grill.

Hopefully the space won’t stay vacant for too long…
