The first of JPI's four ballpark projects, The Jefferson at Capitol Yards will open its doors Monday. The 448-"luxury rental" building, formerly known as "70 I" boasts of granite tops, Moen pullout faucets, "regal baths", and GE appliances. Designed by WDG Architecture, the building and its 100 I Street counterpart combine glass and brick in their façades to create 12-story buildings that were designed to resemble the historic warehouses of the old Navy Yard area.Residents in the Jefferson will have access to a resort-style swimming pool and rooftop terrace, a 24-hour fitness center, a movie theater with stadium seating, and a sports pub complete with traditional pub games, dart boards, pool tables, as well as the trendier Wii (ask your kids), Xbox, and Playstation systems to satisfy residents’ inner teenagers and keep their competitive spirits at bay between Nationals games.
The 246-unit rental apartment building, the Axiom at Capitol Yards at 100 I Street, won’t be too far behind with delivery scheduled for next month. Rounding out JPI’s $470 million ballpark empire are the “luxury” 237 and 421-unit 909 at Capitol Yards and Jefferson at Half Street. The 909 New Jersey Avenue development will open in May 2009 and the Silver LEED certified Jefferson at 999 Half Street will begin construction this fall with delivery in 2010.
The first floor and clubhouse of the Jefferson at Capitol Yards will be available for viewing on Monday. Nosey neighbors can also check out the company’s block party on June 28th before the Nationals-Oriole’s game.

Don't assume that 100% of your reading audience is familiar enough with the city to know the quadrant that this entry is referring to. You might wish to include the quadrant -- NE, NW, SE or SW -- in your blog entries. This entry leaves the uninitiated guessing.
How much?
You put on the big sell with all of the lux amenities, but don't say whether you have to pay $3.00 psf to be a "pioneer" in this area.
We're not leasing them, call their leasing office.
and, FYI, this is in SE
Hi Sarah:
JPI's first deliveries, while 3 blocks from Nationals' Park, are actually located in a neighborhood in southeast DC that is referred to as the Capitol Riverfront. That is why their project name is Capitol Yards. The quadrant is indeed SE.
