Home - Planned Metro Prox. Dev.
A planned mixed-use development neighboring The Town of Cheverly and the Cheverly Metro Station.
Cheverly Metro is a planned est. 1,000,000 sq. ft mixed-use development extending from the 5600 block of Tuxedo Road to the 6000 block of Arbor Street collectively comprising approximately 9 acres. The development neighbors the Town of Cheverly, which Washingtonian Magazine has termed “one of the best places to live in the Washington DC area.” Cheverly Metro is planned for approximately 520 residential units, 180,000 sq. ft. of office space, and 90,000 sq. ft. of retail space.
Cheverly Metro is being designed by Minton & Associates, and will incorporate many of the community guidelines that have been adopted by the Town of Cheverly and have contributed to the town’s many successes and the town’s considerable growth since its founding in 1918.
Given the proximity of the development to the Cheverly Metro Station and Minton & Associates’ thoughtful design of the planned development, it is anticipated that Cheverly Metro will be a walkable community whose residents will be less reliant on automobiles than most in the Washington area. The community’s location within one eighth of a mile of the Cheverly Metro and seven miles from the U.S. Capitol distinguishes the area vis a vis Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (“LEED”) residential development criteria.
