An overhead rendering of what the current DC Water site could become when the many necessary steps are completed to hand over four acres of the DC Water site to Forest City for redevelopment that would
include over 600 residential units and retail, including a movie theater.
Diamond Teague Park would also see its footprint expanded to the north, and Potomac Avenue would be extended eastward from 1st Street. Note that both DC Water pumping stations would remain--the O Street building is envisioned at front right, with new construction on top, but doesn't reflect the
actual design unveiled in 2015.
How the movie theater and other new buildings could look when seen from the Anacostia Riverwalk Bridge.
The same angle as the above rendering, showing the current vista from the bridge. (6/28/14)
Looking up 1st Street from the Anacostia, with Nationals Park to the left and one of the proposed residential buildings at right, along with the revamped Potomac Avenue and expanded Diamond Teague Park. (10/20/13)

The northeast corner of 1st and O--this is DC Water land that will could someday be turned over for Ballpark District development. (10/05)
Looking down N Place from 1st Street, in its current configuration. DC Water occupies the red brick building at right. (10/27/13)
Envisioning the same location, with a 350-unit residential building at right forefront (reusing the existing building) and the movie theater a block to the rear. (10/20/13)
