Martin Luther King Jr. Avenue and South Capitol Street, SE is a corridor that is experiencing a commercial renaissance from retail and office developments in Historic Anacostia to the new 22,000 square foot Washington Highlands Neighborhood Library in Bellevue. Between these two nodes of activity is the redevelopment of the East and West sides of the former St. Elizabeths Hospital. The site is the future home of the US Department of Homeland Security and the US Coast Guard on the West side and is slated to become a global center of commerce, innovation, technology, sustainability and research on the East side. Tax Incremental Financing Opportunities are available on this corridor.
