Luxury Condos Come to Old Town Waterfront

Now that the Old Town Waterfront Plan has been approved, details of what will occupy the land along the Potomac river are slowly emerging.

EYA, builder of several communities in the DC metro area (including the darling Old Town Commons in North Old Town), told UrbanTurf that it will begin construction this summer on a 60-unit luxury condo community along the waterfront. Named The Oronoco, it will be located between Wythe and Pendelton Streets, steps away from Oronoco Bay Park.

EYA's "Coming Soon" page reveals more features:

The Oronoco will offer incomparable one-level living with dramatic views of Historic Old Town, the river and the District. Each of the 60 well appointed residences will feature expansive living spaces with 10' ceilings, floor to ceiling windows, an inviting chef’s kitchen, and a tremendous open terrace. Additionally, Oronoco residents will enjoy exclusive access to luxury amenities, including a concierge, fitness center, swimming pool, large conditioned storage units and direct access to Oronoco Bay Park.

UrbanTurf reports the single-level units will range from 1,600 to 3,000 square feet, with prices from the $900s to $2.5 million. The Oronoco sales office will open the spring of 2013.

The most interesting aspect of this particular condo community is that it emphasizes one-story living, which is an obvious departure from the townhomes traditionally occupying Old Town.

The rendering is indeed attractive; It will be interesting to see how sales fare.

Oronoco

Stagnant, unchanging hovel

     churches outnumber taverns.

Fractured streets lined with garages,

     failed commerce, emerging promise.

Quaint post-office, bitter master.

     Cucumbers in the summer

     left in a box at the door.

Yellow fire house,

     aging red engines.

Berg's worn, red, ancient masonry.

     Children leaving with Necco wafers and pop,

     Never soda.

Don't tell Verdell that S&M is not the best name for a boat shop.

The town of friends, neighbors, quietly proud.

     Clinging to what was, accepting what is coming.

Somehow the town carries on.

     Somehow.
