Rendering of Louis
Construction on the JBG project at 14th and U Street NW now known as Louis (pronounced Louie), will commence within the coming week with deliveries expected in 2013.
Following a rather regal and mysterious social marketing campaign, JBG and partner Georgetown Strategic Capital held an official unveiling of Louis on Tuesday afternoon.
The long-awaited project, formerly referred to as “Utopia,” will consist of a 9-story structure with 267 apartments, 42,000 square feet of retail and commercial space and 148 parking spaces. JBG and Georgetown Strategic Capital are working with architect Eric Colbert & Associates and interior designer Cecconi Simone on the project.
The residential building will have a slew of high-end amenities once complete, including a rooftop pool and movie theater, a fitness center with yoga room and a 24-hour concierge. No word yet on what the asking rents will be.
