Hillcrest/Skyland

Nestled between two regional commuter routes, Hillcrest/Skyland’s easy access to Suitland Parkway and Pennsylvania Avenue is a hidden gem. Residents can take a bus, train, car, or bike to work and have created a neighborhood-scale enclave around Skyland Town Center. With the next phases of development scheduled to open in the next few years, new development opportunities here will not remain a secret much longer.

Skyland Town Center

With the support of public and private financing sources including an $18.75 million TIF, redevelopment of the former Skyland Shopping Center has transformed four city blocks into a vibrant, mixed-use hub:
  • Block 2 includes the Crest at Skyland (263 units & 84,000 SF of retail) as well as new road infrastructure.
  • Block 3 consists of three one-story buildings offering 42,400 SF of retail, including DC’s first Lidl grocery store.
  • Blocks 1 and 4 (2025+ delivery) will include 126 for-sale townhomes and a 75-unit senior apartment building with 10,000 SF of retail uses.

Grocery Anchors

  • At 29,000 SF, DC's first-ever Lidl grocery store anchors the Skyland Town Center’s mixed-use shopping & dining destination.
  • A 56,000 SF Safeway grocery store anchors the 98,000 SF Good Hope Marketplace shopping center.
