Floor Plans: A Union of Form, Function and Warehouses

Union Row in the heart of the historic and rapidly-developing “U Street Corridor” in Washington, D.C. was created to attract hip, urban home buyers.
A mixture of old and new, Union Row is actually comprised of two very distinct communities — The Warehouses, an adaptive reuse of two two-story warehouses; and The Flats, a new, nine-story building of loft-style condominiums that covers a city block and boasts three different facades to blend in with its surrounding neighborhood.
Union Row was named the best new loft community in the 2008 Pillars of the Industry Awards honoring the best in multifamily construction.

The Warehouses in the foregound and The Flats at Union Row in the background | The Warehouses at Union Row offers one-, two- and three-level living in two- or three-bedroom condominiums. Many of the 59 condominiums in The Warehouses portion of Union Row were developed within the historic warehouse structures and maintain their historic exterior facade.
Many of the condominiums in The Warehouses also feature lofts, grade-level garages and terraces. Developer PN Hoffman, which has been developing upscale condominium residences and mixed-use properties in the Washington, D.C. area since 1993, also added a third level to The Warehouses by building three-level townhouses above the historic warehouses.
The units in The Warehouses feature a variety of ceiling heights and multiple living levels.

The main floor of one of The Warehouses condominums | The Flats at Union Row are entirely new construction on a city block of about two acres. Many of the 267 condominiums feature floor-to-ceiling windows and all feature European-style kitchens with stainless steel appliances, and sleek, stylish baths.
The Flats boasts a residents’ lounge, three underground levels of parking and a courtyard with a waterfall, while the building is cantilevered over the top of one of Washington, D.C.’s subway lines.
