Quadrangle Development and Capstone Development are planning to replace the three-story building at 1840 7th Street NW (map) with an eight-story, 204-unit development with 21,000 square feet of ground-floor retail. The development will also have penthouse-level amenities, Inclusionary Zoning units and a level of below-grade parking.
Both a raze permit and a building permit are currently under review for the site. UrbanTurf will update this article when more information is available.
