Washington, D.C.—Greystar and Ivanhoé Cambridge are developing 801 New Jersey Ave., SE, a new mixed-use development in Washington, D.C.

“We are excited to offer residents an eco-friendly community that emphasizes sustainable living, provides high-quality amenities and is conveniently located across the street from the new Whole Foods that is currently under construction,” Brandon Henry, Greystar’s managing director of development, told MHN. “We maintain a constant focus on our Pillars of Excellence. Our commitment to customer service, community, operational excellence and people is always the foundation of the properties we develop and construct.”

The new development will feature 227 apartment homes and 5,774 square feet of retail space available for lease. The property will offer studios, one- and two-bedroom floor plans ranging in size from 537 to 1,357 square feet. The ultra-modern interior finishes will include quartz countertops, custom cabinetry and plank flooring. Floor plans will incorporate features such as 9-foot ceilings, walk-in closets, full-size washers and dryers and balconies in most units.

Residents will have access to a variety of amenities including a clubhouse with gathering and meeting spaces, a fitness center, rooftop terrace with a swimming pool, sundeck, grilling stations and fire pit. Bike storage, a pet spa, 24-hour concierge and underground parking will also be available.

“The community will help fill the demand for high quality apartment homes that fit well with the area’s urban lifestyle,” Henry said. “The green community is being built with a combination of eco-friendly materials, high-end finishes and the latest amenities that will appeal to a variety of residents.”

The mixed-use development will also include street level space for boutiques and restaurants.

The 801 New Jersey Ave property has unobstructed views of the US Capitol as well as great access and visibility to the highway (I-695), it is walkable to two metro stops, Nationals Park, Canal Park, Riverfront Garfield Park and the US Capitol.
