Highlights

The CBD Sector Plan seeks to create a mix of housing choices, including low-rise, high-density apartments and townhouses. Housing desirability is generated by more than the individual buildings. A convenient and thriving community will be created by housing supported by parks, shopping, civic and employment uses with transit and Beltway access..
Examples
  • Cameron Hills Townhouse
