| ARTIST RESIDENCES |
The Cultural Development Corporation (CuDC) has partnered with The Cohen Companies and Union Place Phase I, LLC to develop 30 affordable live/work housing units for artists and their families at the Loree Grand — 250 K Street NE, in the NoMa (North of Massachusetts Ave) area of Washington, DC. These dwellings are (arguably) at the western end of the H Street Corridor two blocks from the NY Ave Metro station and a few blocks away from Union Station. In the near future, residents will also be two blocks away from the H street NE streetcar line.
Live/work artist housing are apartments that are primarily designed for living, with studio/work space as an ancillary use. Employees and walk-in trade are regulated by a Home Occupation Permit.
The building, the Loree Grand at Union Place, with move-in beginning June 2010, features 30 affordable live/work apartments designated for artists, arts administrators and educators. Unit sizes include: studios, 1-bedrooms, 2-bedrooms and 2-bedrooms with dens. Amenities include: in-unit washer and dryer, granite countertops and stainless steel appliances and entryways with direct street access (on select units). In addition, the building houses a state-of–the-art gym, courtyard, roof garden and retail. Units range from 596 to 1362 square feet. Nine of the units, located on 3rd Street, feature entryways with direct street access as either walk-down or walk-up units. Units are priced to be affordable to households earning a maximum of 80% ofArea Median Income (AMI). Area Median Income (AMI) is the annual median income level for the Washington, DC metropolitan area, as calculated by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development. The 2009 AMI for the DC metro area is $102,000 for a four person household.
The CuDC will lease units on a first come, first served basis. Interested households may begin submitting applications at 8 a.m. on Monday, May 17, 2010.
