WASHINGTON, Nov. 5 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- If any skeptics still doubt that the rapidly revitalizing Capitol Riverfront, surrounding the new Nationals baseball stadium, will be DC's hottest new address, they need only look at the initial sales success of one of the neighborhood's first new condo buildings. Velocity held its official Grand Opening on October 26, and homebuyer response to this sleek, contemporary new condo community wowed even its developer, The Cohen Companies.
During its first five days of sales, the Velocity Sales Center was inundated with well-qualified, interested homebuyers - and 10 bought new condos on the spot. This kind of sales momentum is extremely reassuring in light of today's DC condo market, and it signals the sure success of Velocity and its Capitol Riverfront location. Prices for Velocity condos start in the $300's.
Velocity epitomizes all the best of the new Capitol Waterfront area. Velocity will include a rooftop pool, a Wellness Center, controlled access, underground parking, an ultramodern lobby and a landscaped center courtyard. Velocity homes are available as studios, one-bedrooms, one-bedrooms with dens, two-bedrooms and two-bedrooms with dens. The homes feature high-end, designer-inspired finishes.
"I think the key to Velocity's amazing sales success are its design, location, marketing campaign and its truly incredible Sales Center and furnished Model Home," said Alan D. Cohen, president of ADC Builders and principal of The Cohen Companies. "The Sales Center has interactive electronic displays and includes a full-sized, fully-furnished model with one bedroom, two full baths and a den - right in the Sales Center," Cohen added. "Buyers come in and they can immediately see how forward-thinking this building and this location are," he said. "This really is Washington's next new neighborhood."
This cosmopolitan residential tower is one-and-a-half blocks from Navy Yard Metro, four blocks from the new Nationals baseball stadium and just blocks from the U.S. Capitol. Velocity will be surrounded by new stores, restaurants and coffee houses, new nightclubs and performing arts venues. Velocity's location also puts residents a short walk from shopping along Barracks Row on 8th Street, at Eastern Market and on M Street.
Homebuyers interested in the Velocity condominium should visit the website at VelocityCapitol.com, phone the Sales Center at 202-863-0260, or simply visit the Sales Center, which is located at 1025 First Street, SE and is open daily from 11am to 5pm.
