About This Property

Learn more about this property
The Shell is a new 83-unit affordable apartment building at the intersection of Columbia Pike and Greenbrier Street in the Columbia Heights West Neighborhood. Leasing started in early 2015. The apartment community is built on a parcel of land that once included a Shell gas station. AHC combined undeveloped land it owned next to its Harvey Hall Apartments with the gas station?s parcel to assemble a large enough site to develop the new apartment building. The six-story structure is built around a central courtyard with ground floor retail on Columbia Pike. The project is EarthCraft certified and also features a green roof. The Shell contains five efficiencies, 10 one-, 63 two-, and 5 three-bedroom units. Nineteen apartments are affordable to households earning 50% Area Median Income (AMI) and 64 units are for households earning 60% AMI. The first floor also includes a 789-square-foot community center, a management office, and 6,600 square feet of retail space. Additionally the building has a fitness room for resident use.

    Ive tried scheduling an appointment with this complex and a very rude lady answered the phone and told me that there was none available (even though it says there is) and when I asked if I could have a tour of the facility she just hung up on me.
