1107 Delaware Ave SW Washington, DC 20024

This mid-20th Century church, constructed in 1950, is located less than one block from M St SW in an area slated for significant redevelopment. The surrounding area is about to undergo a total "make-over" encompassing almost 10 acres. The property is currently zoned RA-1, with a city plan to rezone it to MU-10. The redevelopment project, adjacent to the District of Columbia's "Greenleaf Community," aims to create a model community, a green oasis, an arts and cultural destination, and a thriving town center. The SW Wharf development, comprising 3.2 million square feet, is a short walk to the west. The site is also located within 3 to 4 blocks of the Waterfront Metro Station and the Nats Park Metro Station. To the east, the site is a similar distance from the Capital Riverfront and the "Yards," part of the Anacostia Waterfront Initiative (AWI), which is adding millions of square feet of high-quality residential, retail, and office space. Audi Field and the Buzzard Point redevelopment are approximately 5 blocks to the south. The existing congregation desires to relocate, presenting an opportunity for a progressive-minded ministry seeking to establish itself in a new model neighborhood.
