M Street is the "Main Street" of Near Southeast, running east-west from South Capitol Street to the Anacostia River, neatly bisecting the neighborhood. It's transformation initially began in 1999, then really took off after 2004. Since 2001, four office buildings have been completed, and more are on the way. There could even be a light rail line down M Street some day.

A Guide to M Street (Some projects already have their own page on this site, click the red headers to see those pages.) Looking East: Two views of M Street, looking east from South Capitol Street. The top is in January 2003; 80 M (left front) and 300 M (left rear) are completed, and 1100 New Jersey is under construction. The bottom photo, taken in June 2008, shows a much different landscape: along the left, 20 M has sprung up, 100 M is nearly done, and 1100 New Jersey long since completed. On the right, Monument's 55 M is topped out, and the US Department of Transportation HQ is finished as well, in the distance. (6/21/08)
