WC Smith and Rappaport announced plans to develop for-sale townhomes and a fully affordable multifamily residential property for seniors at Skyland Town Center, marking the final stage for the southeast Washington, DC, development.
The townhome project will consist of 126 for-sale homes. Plans call for 3 ½ story homes, featuring 3 to 4 bedrooms, up to 3 ½ bathrooms and ranging from 2,200 to 2,800 square feet.
The senior building will consist of 75 fully affordable units. That building will also feature 10,000 square feet of retail space.
The new development project will have an overall 41% affordability, with offerings at 30%, 50%, and 80% MFI.
When completed, Skyland Town Center will have 464 residential units, and 135,000 sf of retail. Open now are The Crest, a 263-unit multifamily property, and a variety of retailers, including a Lidl grocery store that opened in September 2002, the first drive-through Starbucks in DC and several restaurants.
Edenbridge, a health care services facility for seniors living in Wards 7 & 8, plans to open its Skyland location in April 2023.
