Since the last time UrbanTurf took a look at the South Capitol Street corridor, over 1,900 residential units have delivered across six projects — and there are still plenty of more residences to come. 

Below, we revisit the residential pipeline just east of South Capitol between I-695 and the Anacostia Riverfront.

In case you missed them, here are other neighborhoods we have covered this year:

• The 15 Projects and 870 Units on the Boards Around Shaw, and What’s Up Next
• The 240 Units in the Works in Adams Morgan
• The 250 Units Still in the Pipeline Along 14th Street
• The Last 75 Units Headed to the H Street Corridor
• On-Campus and Off-Campus: The Howard University Rundown

CSX East

Construction work is ongoing for the hotel portion of a three-building development on the nearly 11-acre CSX property just south of 695. The first phase will be a 225-room AC Marriott above retail at 861 New Jersey Avenue SE (map), followed by a pair of by-right residential buildings with 214 and 542 respective units and additional retail. The buildings will share a below-grade garage and will also be connected by bridges on the second floor, and the site will include two dog parks. The residential buildings will also have a second bridge at the roof level with a glass floor. Greystar and JP Morgan are the developers and R2L:Architects is the designer.
