By GlobalDataThe two buildings will include rooftop amenity spaces with panoramic views of the Washington DC skyline and National Landing.
They will also feature large co-working spaces, 24-hour concierges, dog-grooming stations, fitness centres, community rooms and pools.
Additionally, electric vehicle charging stations and in-garage bike parking for residents will also be included in the developments.
Site preparation and demolition work at 2000 and 2001 South Bell Street have already commenced early last year.
JBG Smith development executive vice president Bryan Moll said: “The start of construction at 2000 and 2001 South Bell Street is a major milestone in National Landing’s ongoing transformation and delivers on our pledge to build new housing in lockstep with Amazon and Virginia Tech’s growth in the neighbourhood.
“These two unique towers are a testament to our efforts to create a more animated and diverse urban environment through an injection of creativity and in collaboration with established architectural design firms.”
The company stated that the two towers are under fully-executed guaranteed maximum price (GMP) contracts with Balfour Beatty, which will work as general contractor for the developments.
Furthermore, the two multifamily building will be developed to achieve LEED Gold Certification.
