Howard University East Towers

Pleasant Plains

Lowe, FLGA and Howard University have plans in the works for a 10-story mixed-use building at the site of the parking lot for the Howard East Towers between 8th and 9th Street NW. The building will have ground floor commercial space below residential units, with parking for 235 vehicles. While the design and full scope of the development are in the early stages, one of the more interesting aspects of the project would be a two-block, 25-foot wide public plaza along W Street connecting Georgia Avenue to 9th Street.
