More about Properties for Sale near the Congress Heights Green Line

Congress Heights in DC’s Ward 8 suffered from urban blight for decades. But these days, it is progressing through a revitalization movement. Real estate properties for sale form the backbone of the trend, with an interesting blend of both new and old homes.

Prices in Congress Heights start in the very low six figures and climb to the mid-to-high six figure range. In addition to older cottages and other single-family homes, there is also newer construction and large-scale development projects.

Key developments include the new upscale Henson Ridge townhouses, built where public housing once existed. Also, St. Elizabeth’s—a former mental hospital founded in 1855—is now being transformed into residential units, an NBA training facility for the Washington Wizards, a tech center and retail.

Additional Information about the Area

Congress Heights was once farmland that became residentially developed during the late 1800s. But the popular streetcar suburb spiraled into decline during the modern era, falling victim to industrial pollution and crime.

That has changed in recent years. Today, there’s a shiny new Giant Superstore, a pop-up location for Whole Foods events, and the aforementioned St. Elizabeth’s project.
