DCmud: Arboretum Place Gets Under Way
DCmud reports more details about Arboretum place, the new mixed use apartment building going in on the vacant lot behind Hechinger Mall. The essential details:
"the $36 million development will deliver 257 apartments, a 250 space parking garage, and 5,000 s.f. ground-floor retail."
If 257 seems like a smaller number that you remember that's because this is phase one of the project. The first residential units should come online in 2012.

This is really great news. Here's hoping this is a thoughtful development and not another cookie-cutter apartment building.

What's the story w/ Steuart's project?

i've asked this a billion times elsewhere, and noone seems to be able to answer it, so i'll try here.
do you, elise, know where we can find some site plans of this place (and the aldi)?
every other major development project in DC has a website where you can find a lot of information. developers seem to like to publicize things, except here.
it's almost like they want to keep it a secret for some reason.

No idea on the Aldi. For this project, you could always contact Tracey Thomm at Clark. Oh, and Kathy Henderson might have something (seriously).

IMGoph, clark has the rendering on its website with a few key details. Is that what you’re looking for or you want more detailed blueprint style plans?

ro: yeah, i've seen that. they don't even tell you what angle that rendering is supposed to represent.
i'd definitely like something more blueprint-esque. a site plan would be fantastic.

Rendering looks too nice and unless it's free housing, it ain't gonna happen with the new administration. That project would send move folks over to PG county.

imgoph,
call the developer and ask.

anon: yep, that looks like the only choice! i'll try to convince them that more information for the neighbors is a good thing...
