Background
RIA is a 20-acre redevelopment of the 1940s-era Brookland Manor and Brentwood Village Shopping Center. At completion, RIA will be a modern and vibrant, mixed-use and mixed-income community offering market-rate and affordable housing in a variety of unit sizes from studios to townhomes. New neighborhood amenities will include a 1.5-acre green pedestrian plaza and playground, and a new retail center featuring a full-service grocery, shops, restaurants and neighborhood services.
On May 22, the DC Zoning Commission approved the development of Block 7, RIA’s first phase of development beginning in 2018. Block 7 includes two new buildings: a 200-unit senior building for residents aged 62 and older (and qualified aides), and a 131-unit multifamily building.
