And, here's the map I made for Mount Vernon Triangle:

That pretty much covers all the announced projects. There may be a few more in Capital Riverfront but a pretty comprehensive list though. Mt. Vernon Triangle, Capital Riverfront, and NOMA/Union Market will battle to have the densest census tracts in the city over the next 5-10 years. They will all have census tracts that pass Logan Circle which had a 66k per square mile tract in 2010. I will say that Logan Circle also has substantial residential development taking place and will eclipse 70k people per square mile, however, I don't see it reaching 80k people per square mile which some tracts in Mt. Vernon Triangle, Capital Riverfront, and NOMA/Union Market could all reach. The Wharf/Waterfront Station is another neighborhood to watch. MidCity also has a lot moving. It will be fun to watch as all these neighborhoods compete for density supremacy.

Over on SSP somebody states that the project was about 80%over budget... there is gonna be some big changes to the design, i'm afraid to see whats to come.

This article below says there will be 4,080 units under construction in the Capital Riverfront neighborhood by 2016.

It also highlights the Master's of Urban Design class from Carnegie Mellon that came to study the neighborhood.

5) Galley at Capitol Riverfront
6) Loft at Capital Quarter
7) Yards (Parcel N)
8) Park Riverside (just delivered)
Near Southeast DC's Completed, Proposed and Active Developments - JDLand.com

I need to check out that area, haven't been down that way since baseball season.

DC also has a lot under construction recently in NoMa. Although, I think that area may currently be quiet.

10 residential buildings
4 hotels
1 office building

Total = 15 buildings

Interesting stats I just saw for the changing housing mix in downtown Chicago

Number of condo units downtown:
1991: 21,000
1994: 25,000 +19%
1997: 28,000 +12%
2000: 37,000 +32%
2003: 51,000 +38%
2006: 65,000 +27%
2009: 78,000 +20%
2012: 78,000 --
2015: 79,000 +1%

Number of apartment units downtown:
1991: 28,000
1994: 25,000 -11%
1997: 24,000 -4%
2000: 22,000 -8%
2003: 23,000 +5%
2006: 21,000 -8%
2009: 25,000 +19%
2012: 29,000 +16%
2015: 40,000 +38%

Total housing units downtown:
1991: 49,000
1994: 50,000 +2%
1997: 52,000 +4%
2000: 59,000 +13%
2003: 74,000 +25%
2006: 86,000 +16%
2009: 103,000 +20%
2012: 107,000 +4%
2015: 119,000 +11%

Still thousands of apartments in the pipeline and under construction, but we're starting to see the swing back to condos as well as we move into 2015. The first few condo highrises are getting off the ground or starting site prep, something we haven't seen in over 5 years.

I agree. I know we've had a long discussion about this topic before It will be interesting to see how the census tracts in these neighborhoods get split up in the 2020 census count.

Well, here's another 332 units coming to the Capital Riverfront neighborhood slated to start later this year. I wonder if the neighborhood will hit 5,000 apartment/condo units under construction?

First look: First condos, next apartments coming to The Yards - Washington Business Journal

You know, I used to think this video below was far off, shoot, this neighborhood will look close to how this video looks by 2018.
