The Berkeley to be built on Glebe Road
A 1960s apartment complex is being bulldozed and in its place will rise The Berkeley. Nonprofit developer AHC, Inc., will build the complex at 2900 S. Glebe Road that will house 256 units in two buildings with 155 of the units being affordable housing units. Completion is expected in 2020.
MetroStage location could go to housing
Carr Cos., the developer of 1201 N. Royal St., currently home to MetroStage, is proposing to build residential housing that will still have a focus on the arts. The proposal calls for 90-plus multifamily units, artists lofts, art gallery, roof club, arts walk and two art studios. MetroStage will not be part of the new development, but will instead move to Carr’s Crowne Plaza site on N. Fairfax Street.
