Hines, Urban Atlantic, Triden Development Group and Bridge Investment Group Team Up with the City to Close on Land to Develop Co-Living Project at The Parks at Walter Reed

(WASHINGTON, D.C.) — Hines, Urban Atlantic, and Triden Development Group, along with joint venture partner Bridge Investment Group, joined Mayor Bowser and the City today in announcing they have closed on just under an acre of land at The Parks at Walter Reed to develop 1155 Dahlia Street, a 60-unit upscale co-living project with 21,000 square feet of retail. Santander Bank N.A. and Tristate Capital Bank, Inc. are providing the construction financing.

Featuring 248 fully furnished co-living bedrooms, including 38 designated affordable co-living bedrooms, throughout a mix of two, three, four, and five-bedroom units, as well as a full-service gym, club room, co-working space, and two outdoor terraces, 1155 Dahlia Street is one of three buildings that comprise the vibrant Parks Market Place, which will feature natural and organic grocer, Whole Foods Market, plus 60,000 square feet of dining, shopping and entertainment around an active plaza fronting Georgia Avenue. Common has been selected to manage the property.

“We are thrilled to be launching our first co-living building at 1155 Dahlia Street. Co-living allows us to deliver the same high-quality residential development at a more accessible price point to tenants whilst simultaneously offering convenience not seen in conventional multifamily. We are excited to work with Bridge on this project following our ongoing success at The Hartley,” said Hines Senior Managing Director Chuck Watters.

1155 Dahlia Street will be the next new construction phase to commence on-site with The Brooks, which includes 89 elegantly appointed condominium residences and The Vale, that consists of 301 apartments and 18,000 square feet of retail recently completed; and the Hartley, comprised of 323 units and 60,000 square feet of retail—currently underway. Kite House, a 109-unit condo project with 11,000 square feet of retail, will commence construction in October.

“Bridge Investment Group is excited to expand its footprint in this iconic project as part of the master plan for the former Walter Reed complex just north of Washington, D.C. This represents another major milestone for us to provide quality Co-living units within a historic landmark alongside our partners Hines, Triden and Urban Atlantic,” said Bridge Investment Group’s Chief Investment Officer, David Coelho.

“When we go to the drawing board for projects like this, we start by asking ourselves how we can be innovative and ensure that future residents have what they need to be able to live, work and play,” said Deputy Mayor for Planning and Economic Development John Falcicchio. “Today, we are celebrating 1155 Dahlia, which introduces a brand new, distinct co-living concept for residents, the first on the dynamic Walter Reed campus and in the District. It will also get us closer to achieving Mayor Bowser’s bold goal of creating 36,000 new housing units, 12,000 of them affordable, by 2025.”

“1155 Dahlia Street will help diversify the housing stock in Ward 4, drawing new residents, providing more options to existing residents, and easing the scarcity of housing that drives up costs for all community members,” said Ward 4 Councilmember Janeese Lewis George. “Paired with additional housing, dining options, and retail, this project will add to the vibrancy of our community."

Torti Gallas Urban is the architect for 1155 Dahlia Street with interior design by Ink + Oro and landscape design by Studio39. Retail broker CBRE+Streetsense is engaged for the Parks retail leasing. Construction on 1155 Dahlia Street is also expected to begin in October with completion of the project in early 2023.
