The winning proposal
The co-development team Greenleaf District Partners, led by Pennrose, EYA, and the Bozzuto Group, has put forth a preliminary vision for a four-phase, 1,400-plus unit development covering the existing Greenleaf Gardens development, roughly between Third Street and Delaware Avenue from Eye to M Streets SW, and between First Street and Delaware Avenue from M to N Streets SW.
