3910 - 3912 Georgia Avenue, NW  

Narrative Description

The 3910-3912 Georgia Avenue, NW site represents a development opportunity that returns the property to productive use and improves the quality of life for District residents in a key corridor of the city.

The 30,000 square foot site is located less than half a mile from the Georgia Avenue/Petworth Metro Station. Currently, the property is vacant and unused.

The $35 million mixed-use project will accommodate approximately 130 units of new housing for District residents on the second floor, of which 119 will be dedicated to low-income families. Additionally, the property will include space for the Mary's Center for Maternal and Child Care. The Mary's Center, which already operates two health clinics in the District of Columbia, will have a location on the ground floor of the building and serve disadvantaged individuals and families with a wide range of health-related services. 

Development Partners

The District is working with Jair Lynch Development Partners and Affordable Housing Developers (AHD).
