Georgia Ave. Apartment Building Delivers Half-Leased
Washington Property Co.’s 8250 Solaire Georgia Ave. Apartment has leased about half of the building.
WASHINGTON, DC—Washington Property Co. has delivered its latest apartment community, Solaire 8250 Georgia Ave. The 20-story, 338-unit residence is located two blocks from the Silver Spring (MD) Metro and multi-modal transit station and is about half-leased.
The building has more than 5,000-square feet of amenity space including a rooftop swimming pool and pool deck; café with free wi-fi; private courtyard with grilling areas; a fitness center; and a residents’ club room with catering kitchen, library, flat-screen TV, indoor-outdoor fireplace, and game room.
“We are highly focused on creating a new and exciting retail experience for Silver Spring,” said Lee Engle of CBRE Retail Services, which is leasing the building’s retail space. “We currently are in negotiations with a number of unique chefs and independent restaurateurs,” Engle said in prepared remarks.
Solaire 8250 Georgia Ave. is WPC’s fourth Solaire-branded apartment community and its second in Silver Spring’s Ripley District. WPC expects to break ground later this year on a fifth Solaire-branded tower, Solaire Silver Spring II, slated to be the tallest building in Silver Spring.
Solaire-Metro, located two blocks from Solaire 8250 Georgia Ave., opened in 2012; Solaire Wheaton delivered in 2014; and Solaire Bethesda delivered in late 2016.
