Bill > B26-0466

This bill authorizes amendments to the term sheet for the development of Parcel 13 on the St. Elizabeths East campus in Washington, D.C. The amendments address changes in site conditions and developer, replacing the original developer, Neighborhood Development Corporation (NDC), with Dantes Partners Acquisitions LLC. The revised development plan now includes approximately 241 housing units (with a focus on senior living) and 5,000 square feet of gallery/retail space, which differs from the original plan of over 400 residential units. The bill extends the project's closing timeline from two to six years and provides an additional six months for substantial completion. Additionally, the legislation establishes a process for future substantive changes to the project's terms, requiring Council review and approval. The changes are necessary due to complex site conditions involving Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Authority infrastructure and soil conditions, and will support the broader redevelopment of the St. Elizabeths East campus. The bill will take effect after mayoral approval, congressional review, and publication in the District of Columbia Register.
