EYA LLC has closed on the land for Highlands Row, a new townhome community located in the heart of National Landing.

Highlands Row marks the next phase of a transformative, mixed-income expansion of the Crystal House Apartments complex. The project is a public-private partnership among Arlington County, Amazon’s Housing Equity Fund, EYA, True Ground Housing Partners and Washington Housing Conservancy.

Developed through a public-private partnership, Highlands Row is part of a five-phase infill redevelopment plan that will expand the existing 828-unit Crystal House Apartments with 865 additional housing units, including 655 dedicated affordable units.

“This deal is a major step forward in delivering on our vision for Highlands Row,” said Jack Lester, EVP of Acquisitions and Development at EYA. “Highlands Row will offer residents a unique blend of urban connectivity and neighborhood charm to new residents and honors our commitment to provide new housing options to Arlington County.”
