something printable during a lazy August. But the cash infusion into the neighborhood was good for other developers too; namely EYA, which rebroadcast the news in advance of its own groundbreaking around the corner. The area's current access, or lack thereof, to quality, independent eateries and retail is regrettable, and any chance of more commerce, whatever the time-frame, is good news. Now piggybacking on these housing-market huzzahs, EYA has given the area's residents and real estate news junkies more to cheer about, announcing that their expansive LEED-certified residential development will break ground on Tuesday. As proof of the regional renaissance, EYA also notes "the massive 40+ acre Dakota Crossing development and the Rhode Island Avenue Metro redevelopment".
EYA began marketing their Chancellor's Row houses in May, before they had even finished constructing their sales center. Not to be misled by the subtle art of neighborhood cartography, neighborhood watchdogs have pointed out that the "Brookland Metro" development lies a few blocks west of the unofficial "official" dividing line (9th Street NE) of Brookland, in Edgewood.

Too bad they couldn't tie it more into the existing streets rather than a subdvision
And also too bad that they are using porches like an accessory instead of an integral part of the house and street-scape. All the houses should have a porch on a row instead of them being used like an ornament in their renderings for this project.
"neighborhood watchdogs have pointed out that the "Brookland Metro" development lies a few blocks east of the unofficial "official" dividing line (9th Street NE) of Brookland, in Edgewood."
This development is west of the divider, not east.
i guess the issue is why use a neighborhood name at all if you can't use and respect the proper name.
Brookland, Bozzuto, EYA, PERS Development, Seems like these guys will actually have an impact in our neighborhood. Thanks and good luck to all of them.
Im confused as to why this site plan shows the west side of 5th street as a new development...especially because I live there and I dont recall any realators knocking on my door.
