Project Overview:
The Reservoir District Master Plan reimagines a historic industrial site, originally built to provide clean drinking water to the Nation’s Capital, into a vibrant, mixed-use development. The first phase celebrates the site’s historic layout and architectural character with a six-acre park and recreation center. The master plan preserves the site’s unique historic elements while creating a cohesive neighborhood through the integration of new parks and plazas, retail, market-rate and affordable housing, and new medical office/research facilities. The development and design program complement the surrounding residential neighborhoods and supports existing adjacent uses, such as health care facilities.
