For those keeping score at home, we have a new member of the above-ground-construction fraternity, with rebar now poking up at
1244 South Capitol Street, JBG's 290-unit apartment building on the northeast corner of South Capitol and N, immediately north of Nats Park.
(This is the site that has the tower crane with the lit crescent moon hanging from it, if you're someone who has gotten used to seeing that tableau from your seats at the stadium.)
The building is expected to be completed in late 2017ish, and will have 26,000 square feet of retail.
While I don't know anything specifically, I'm guessing that the owners of the
Public Storage building that within two years or so will be sandwiched between two new luxury residential buildings get a lot of phone calls from developers.
