Rare development opportunity to build on a huge 5418 SF lot in a spacious alley in sought after H Street Corridor, surrounded by luxury condos, apartments, hotels, and restaurants. Incredible location, just steps to Union Market, H Street, NOMA, and Capitol Hill. Currently Zoned RF-1, you can build two single-family dwellings. The current usage is commercial with a plumbing office and warehouse that is part of the parcel, already with plumbing, sewer, gas and electricity. This is also an opportunity to develop a boutique multi-family building with BZA approval.
Near Northeast, located between Union Station and the U.S. Capitol, is a historic and transit-rich Washington neighborhood with brick rowhouses and pocket parks. The neighborhood’s energy concentrates around H Street NE and 8th Street NE, where ramen counters, vinyl bins, indie boutiques, and late-night patios line the blocks. Union Market anchors the food scene with chef stalls and specialty groceries in a warehouse setting. The Atlas Performing Arts Center adds a cultural pulse with theater and dance. Tree-lined side streets mix restored Victorians with newer mid-rises, and the Metropolitan Branch Trail threads through for bike commutes. Markets, murals, and small plazas keep the streetscape active from morning coffee to evening shows.
