Located on a former under-utilized neighborhood park, the development at Justice Park transformed a once dangerous site into an asset to the Columbia Heights community. Providing affordable housing in a desirable neighborhood, the new development fosters a sense of community, comfort, and safety for its workforce residents.

In addition to providing affordable housing in the Nation’s capitol, Justice Park also caters to the unique needs of the hearing-impaired. The building follows Universal Design principles including open floor plans to accommodate visual communication and signing, a two-way audio-visual entry system, open stairways, and tactile materials. These design considerations contribute to a visually stimulating environment and an improved quality of life for Justice Park residents.

Green Living

Justice Park offers a modern aesthetic and abundant green space at an affordable price. The apartments are appointed with high quality finishes, balconies, and large windows that offer stunning views of Congress Heights. Residential amenities consist of a common room, a fitness center, a new community garden across the street, and a large private courtyard for residents to enjoy.

Closing Thoughts

Justice Park contributes to the vitality of its neighborhood by promoting belonging, ownership, and a sense of community.
