DCMud on future MVT development

Shaun from the DCMud development blog outlines the future development plans for the Mount Vernon Triangle.

For long time followers of this blog there isn't much new offered in DCMud's piece but they do an admirable job consolidating the high level specs into a singular comprehensive posting. For a deeper dive on the projects they mention follow the links below that reference our past coverage:
The DCMud piece does confirm that WSD did not sell their parcels to JBG after Donohoe/Holland won the 5th and Eye RFP.

Any update on the strip club turning into a jazz bar?

@Anon 9:30 - Once it starts, the renovation of the club could unfold on a much brisker timeline than building the new hotel. However I absolutely wouldn't expect anything with the club to move forward until Donohoe/Holland completes assemblage on 5th Street and finalizes their arrangement for the entire project with the city. There is not adequate incentive for the development team to execute the sales arrangement with the strip club if the rest of the project can't move forward.

Good stuff. Thanks for keeping us updated. I'm optimistic and believe in a couple of years there will be a lot more progress made.

To followup on my previous comment... Donohoe just announced today that they are about to sign their Letter of Intent and will share more details at the December ANC6C meeting.
