A New Economic Development Hub for Historic Anacostia

Project Overview

AWC is leading an effort to redevelop the Anacostia Metro Station site as a multi-modal transit facility and mixed-use hub for shops, apartment residences, and government offices.

A centerpiece of the plan will be a new headquarters building for the Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Authority (WMATA) and 200,000 square feet of District government offices—including the AWC’s headquarters.

The development will bring jobs and revitalization to Historic Anacostia, stimulating economic activity that benefits the entire community. The District has completed architectural and feasibility analyses for the relocation of WMATA’s headquarters to Anacostia and briefed members of the WMATA Task Force.
