And We're Off at Skyland Town Center
Yesterday, the hardhats and shovels were out at the groundbreaking for Skyland Town Center in Ward 7, as the project 25 years in the making finally kicked off. (Some, like Mayor Gray, went rogue and ditched the hardhat.) Skyland's big development team (Rappaport, WC Smith, Skyland DC, Marshall Heights Community Development Organization and The East Washington) will deliver 340k SF of retail, 480 residential units, and a Walmart by 2017.
