555 Mass Ave you know the neighborhood. This 14 story 264 unit building was originally intended for apartments. There was so much more money to be made selling condominiums than renting apartments, so they had the jump the competition who were scrambling to enter the vibrant DC condo market. When other were just breaking ground all around it, JBG Group of Chevy Chase altered there plans and delivered 264 condominium homes over two years ahead of the competition. The plot of land where 555 sits had been a parking lot for years. Three metro stops are within three block and everything else Chinatown and Gallery Place has to offer is a short walk away. Everything but a supermarket that is, but there is a Safeway already under construction a block away. The end result is 264 condominium homes with loads of amenities. The efficiencies here start in the upper $200, one bedroom from the low $300 and two bedroom in the low $500 and the amenities .
