A long road from the New Good N Plenty carryout.
June 22, 2019 - The West Half project as seen from Nationals Park's Red Loft. It's kind of close.
March 17, 2019 - Looking southward along Half toward the ballpark shows the building's very unique "funnel" design, and also the proximity to Nats Park.
Aug. 12, 2006 - Looking north on Van Street from Half Street, back in 2006. This land was originally purchsed by Monument Realty in 2005, and then
bought by Akridge in 2008.
November 3, 2019 - The same location, in its current state. This also gives a good indication of how far north the building stretches.
Nov. 3, 2019 - The residential entrance to West Half, on Van Street. The project's southern portion is a separate higher-end residential offering called The 1205 Collection, and it has a separate entrance, further south on Van.
Nov. 3, 2019 - The building's north end, now a retail space and pedestrian pass-through to Van Street. Even when West Half's neighbor to the north is eventually built, this will remain.

January 2006 - The northwest corner of Half and N, the same as the above rendering, but back when it was home to the Good and Plenty Carry Out. And the empty lot seen between the two rowhouses
has a bit of history.
November 3, 2019 - The same location, now well underway, where outdoor bar The Bullpen opened in 2009 and ran for three seasons before being folded into the
Fairgrounds in 2012.
The rendering released in 2015.
