Revitalizing an historic corridor
In the late 1990s, four small Washington, D.C., suburbs, Mount Rainier, Brentwood, North Brentwood, and Hyattsville, Maryland joined forces to create the Gateway Arts District, a bold initiative designed to revitalize a two-mile stretch of the historic U.S. Route One corridor through an infusion of artists and arts facilities.
The first of the Gateway projects, Mount Rainier Artist Lofts, created 44 units of affordable housing for individuals and their families in a new four-story building one block from the District of Columbia border. This $11.7 million project, the first Artspace live/work project involving new construction exclusively, also contains 7,000 square feet of commercial space on the ground floor.
Residents of the Mount Rainier enjoy the same amenities associated with historic warehouse lofts, including high ceilings and large windows, in an energy-efficient new building. The project's affordable rents and proximity to public transportation, as well as Mount Rainier's small-town charm, make it even more attractive.
