Living in DC: Southwest DC--ARENA STAGE AND MORE...

Over the past few months, there has been alot of construction throughout the District. One such neighborhood is in the Southwest DC area. I just recently made my way over there to see the area change dramatically with a new redeveloped Safeway, Starbucks, WaterFront Station Metro Plaza, Arena Stage, Condominiums, etc.

All signs of improvement and progress. . .

ARENA STAGE:
A major renovation of the facility is underway, designed by Bing Thom Architects. These plans leave the Fichandler Stage and Kreeger Theater largely untouched, but call for demolition of the theaters' connecting structures, including lobbies and offices. This new "black box theater" will seat 200.



WATERFRONT STATION METRO PLAZA:
The newly constructed development project surrounds the entrance of the Waterfront Station Metro and spearheaded by the new Safeway. It will house about 900 of the total 1,500 city workers to be moved in by March 25th and the move will begin this Friday. By Monday, at the very least, 4th Street will be open for entry by foot by the occupants of both new buildings.



POTOMAC PLACE TOWER:
The Potomac Place Tower has condos starting under $200K with amenities such as fitness center, outdoor pool, business center, etc. The project is over 50% sold and is currently FHA/VA approved. Its southwest location is one of the city's dynamic urban neighborhoods-rapidly redeveloping, near three Metro stations, short walk to the site of the new baseball stadium and 3 blocks from the National Mall.
