Arlington County, VA — JBG SMITH, an owner and developer of high-quality, mixed-use properties in the Washington, DC market, announced the receipt of final entitlement approvals for 2000 and 2001 South Bell St. in National Landing. JBG SMITH began demolition and other enabling work on the vacant building currently on the site earlier this year and will be fully designed and ready to begin construction as soon as the beginning of 2022, subject to market conditions.
JBG SMITH’s 5.0 million s/f Near-Term Development Pipeline includes the most accretive and strategic development opportunities in its growth pipeline. As a result of the 2000 and 2001 South Bell St. approvals, JBG SMITH has secured entitlements for 50% of its Near-Term Development Pipeline.
The approved plan calls for 758 apartments across two buildings with more than 22,000 s/f of ground floor retail, totaling approximately 723,000 s/f of new development. The plans include a 25-story building with 338 units and a 19-story building with 420 units.
2000 South Bell St. is planned to be a modern, glass tower with a robust rooftop amenity space, including a pool with panoramic views of National Landing and Washington monuments. 2001 South Bell St. will also include stylish rooftop amenity spaces and pool. Plans for both buildings include fitness centers, 24-hour concierges, large co-working spaces, community rooms, and dog-grooming stations. JBG SMITH is targeting a LEED Gold Certification for both buildings.
“We are thrilled to have received unanimous approval for 2000 and 2001 South Bell St. from the Arlington County Board; The Board’s support further validates our shared vision for a transformed National Landing,” said Bryan Moll, executive vice president of JBG SMITH. “The development will add to the supply of residential units in the area as Virginia Tech expands its Innovation Campus, and Amazon continues to expand HQ2. We expect these additional apartments and new ground floor retail options to further establish National Landing as a 24/7 destination.”
