Another all-affordable residential development is in the works off Pennsylvania Avenue SE in Ward 7. 

District Line Development is proposing to replace three single-family homes at 2318–2324 Nicholson Street SE (map) with a five-story, 62-unit residential building.

The new development joins a number of other affordable housing communities in the works around the region. Here are a few:
