Six Alley Townhouses Proposed for Kingman Park

An alley development is in the works in Kingman Park, and it's more ambitious than the typical accessory dwelling.
Union Square Partners and District Real Estate have applied for a zoning variance to subdivide an alley lot between C and D Streets NE, from 15th to 16th Street (map), in order to deliver six two-story townhouses. The site is zoned RF-1, requiring access from an alley at least 24 feet wide; the existing alleys range from 16-20 feet wide.

The typical floor plan will include five bedroom suites and a den, and two of the upstairs bedrooms will have access to private balconies. Each house will have at least one interior parking space on the cellar level and a roof deck. R. Michael Cross Design Group is the architect.
The Board of Zoning Adjustment is scheduled to consider the case in May.
CORRECTION: The development team has been updated since publication.
