Potomac Yard parcels under development by JBG Smith (via City of Alexandria)
Developer JBG Smith will soon discuss an updated proposal to build a mix of multifamily, townhome and committed affordable housing across from the Potomac Yard Metro station.
The project is currently proposed to add more than 600 residential units, open space and retail across three vacant parcels — in land bays G and H.
“The applicant is requesting approval of three distinct Development Special Use Permits (DSUP’s) to construct three projects on three different sites in Potomac Yard,” according to City staff with the Department of Planning and Zoning. “These are the last three remaining building sites in Potomac Yard.”
Details on the three sites have been provided by the city, and are listed below. While a timeline with the city approval process is in the package going to PYDAC on Wednesday, a full-scale development timeline isn’t included.
The proposed developments are on vacant lots west of the Metro station and near to where the failed Potomac Yard arena was to be situated.
