Arlington, VA — The Arlington County Board has approved two major housing developments along Columbia Pike: a large apartment building for low- and moderate-income residents, and a mostly market-rate townhouse project that will replace a complex built by the federal government 70 years ago to house displaced African American families.
Board members voted unanimously to allow construction of the 229-unit Columbia Hills apartment project at the intersection of Columbia Pike and S. Frederick Street, and to lend $19 million to the Arlington Partnership for Affordable Housing (APAH) to subsidize the project.
