NRP Group Celebrates Grand Opening of Affordable Housing Property in DC

The NRP Group, in partnership with Marshall Heights Community Development Organization, Inc., announced the completion and opening of Emblem Apartments, a 115-unit affordable housing community located in the heart of Washington, D.C.’s NoMa and Union Market neighborhoods.

“We call this community ‘Emblem’ for a reason: because it is emblematic of how NRP and our partners are committed to bringing deeply affordable housing to high-access, high-opportunity neighborhoods,” said Chris Marshall, Vice President of Development at The NRP Group.

Located at 301 Florida Avenue NE in Washington, D.C., Emblem Apartments is a 13-story flatiron apartment building on a triangular site just over one mile from the U.S. Capitol Building. Immediately adjacent to the Union Market District, the community puts residents within walking distance of dining, shopping and entertainment destinations.

Emblem Apartments was made possible through a collaborative financing structure involving the DC Housing Finance Agency, DC Department of Housing and Community Development, DC Housing Authority, DC Green Bank and Bank of America. The project represents NRP’s first affordable housing development in Washington, D.C.
