Description
The Yards Park is a 42-acre development on the Anacostia River waterfront in Washington, D.C. The area is at the center of the Capitol Riverfront Business Improvement District and was originally an annex of the Washington Navy Yard. In 2004, the U.S. General Services Administration awarded the property to Forest City Washington, Inc. for redevelopment into an area with 2,800 new residential units and 2,200,000 sq ft of office and retail space. . The development is just west of the Washington Navy Yard and east of Nationals Park. It is served by the Navy Yard – Ballpark station on the Green Line of the Washington Metro.
The Navy Yard neighborhood was Washington's earliest industrial neighborhood, situated at the natural deep water port along the Anacostia River.
The boardwalk, docks and the light tower, looking toward Diamond Teague Park and the Florida Rock site and the Douglass Bridge (and Buzzard's Point in Southwest) in the distance. The Yards Park officially opened Sept. 7, 2010.
