DC’s Residential Construction Boom Shows No Signs Of Slowing

The residential construction boom in the District shows no signs of slowing down. A new map really helps to put the amount of development we have seen in perspective, courtesy of Washington City Paper.
New buildings in the Southwest section of DC are almost exclusively apartments, while the Northwest neighborhoods and H Street NE corridor have seen a mix of larger apartment buildings and duplexes. Clusters of new residential buildings dot the landscape in the Northeast and Southeast corners, while historically preserved neighborhoods such as Capitol Hill, Dupont Circle and Georgetown remain relatively untouched.
