In case you were out of town or busy at work, here is a quick rundown of some of the stories that UrbanTurf ran over the past week.
- Here is a look at listings that we considered to be top-notch.
- We learned that the Arlington County Board unanimously approved Virginia Square Towers, a 534-residential project that will be part of Virginia Square in the Rosslyn-Ballston corridor.
- Prices dropped on a few properties that we have featured over the last several weeks.
- We took a closer look at what life is like in Hillcrest’s Fairfax Village.
- A new 97-unit residential project near Buzzard Point received design and budget approval.
- We found one of the lowest-priced three-bedroom homes on the market in Mount Pleasant.
- A gym, a set of stables and a firehouse all hit the market at National Park Seminary at the same time.
- Long-term interest rates stayed at record lows, and we provided a primer on the relationship between low rates and mortgage points.
- We combed the rental listings to see how far $2,800 a month goes in the DC area.
- In Neighborhood Eats, the man behind Ray’s the Steaks opens up a new place, while Roberto Donna closes another one of his spots.
- News comes that commuters can reload their SmarTrip online, but that doesn’t help the long travel time that area commuters face.
