 On Monday night the Zoning Commission gave final approval to first-stage plans for the Cohen Companies' 1333 M Street residential project, along with second-stage approvals for the development's first phase, a 10-story 218-unit building. The final approvals had been slowed by a number of items that concerned the commissioners. Among them: * While a memorandum of understanding detailing benefits and amenities of the project had been worked out earlier in the process between the developer and ANC 6B, neighbors that live along L Street SE north of the project continue to have objections to various aspects of the project, such as there only being 220 parking spaces for a 673-unit development, as well as the impact of the standard hours of construction on their "quality of life," which Chairman Anthony Hood keyed on as an item where there could have been some "negotiating," though commissioner Peter May noted that the building is not particularly close to L Street SE (with the new Southeast Blvd. and the CSX train tracks separating the two). * The lighting plan for the building, which had originally been shown with a fair amount of up-lighting but is now all down-lighting after the commissioners objected. * The plan for a "place-making sign" on the building's penthouse had gotten Peter May up in arms at the Proposed Action stage, and so the developer came back with additional options. (If you click to enlarge the rendering at the top of this post, you can see up at the roofline a smidge of the BROOKLAND-like sign facing north.) May and the other commissioners still sighed a bit over there being a sign up there at all, but did agree that Option 1 is a "more subtle" version that is an "improvement." I have a notion that some readers might disagree: In the end, though, there were no showstoppers, and the commission voted 5-0 to approve both the first-stage PUD for the overall project and the second-stage PUD for the first residential building. My 1333 M project page has additional renderings and information--and if you are new to the story and can't quite visualize where 1333 M even is, it's on the part of M Street that proceeds eastward underneath and past the 11th Street Bridges.

When I moved to the Velocity, the first thing that I heard at 3 am in the morning was the CSX train. That shit is very loud. Eventually, I got used to it. But, if the CSX train is going to pass literally next to the apartment - the apartment must be very cheap for me to rent it. That's just my opinion. A loud noise of commercial train probably helps some people to sleep better.

Option 3 looks just like BROOKLAND and Option 1 is terrible. Option 2 by default.

Okay, I want to re-phrase my comment that I made above. I didn't see slide 6 picture before I made my comments. Being literally outside the boat house is a dream come true for a lot people. Although, it kind of freaks me out the fact that the river is infested with bacteria but in a long term (2025) - that's when DC 2.5 billion water project will complete, that include 98% of bacteria free clean river.
