Construction continues at the apartment tower with the name that's quite a mouthful, the Solaire 7607 Old Georgetown Road development. There's a new frame-like structure attached to the very top floors, which looks a bit like a giant grill from the front of a car. Perhaps a construction-savvy reader can explain what this is. My guess is it's related to the eventual screening of the mechanical equipment up there.
When completed, the 22-story tower will hold 198 rental apartments, 1700 square feet of ground floor retail space, and 4.5 levels of underground parking. Solaire 7607 Old Georgetown Road was anticipated for a late 2023 delivery, which has slipped to "2024" according to Clark Construction, who ought to know better than anyone as the lead contractor. Developer Washington Property Company's webpage for the project has never listed a delivery date.
Just another hideously ugly box! Ms.Dale Barnhard
