DCmud is reporting that the construction of a six-story apartment building complete with a ground-floor grocery store is increasingly likely at the northeast corner of 3rd and H Streets in Northeast’s H Street Corridor (map). The building would include 212 units plus two levels of parking. The grocery store has yet to be decided, and construction will not proceed until it has been. The developer is hoping that will happen by summer or fall of next year, according to DCmud.

The increased population density and brand new grocery store would add to the momentum the neighborhood has achieved in recent years, with new restaurants and bars popping up all the time -- not to mention the passionate residents. We recently posted a question from an UrbanTurf reader who was considering moving to the neighborhood. The question elicited 56 comments (most of them positive), making it one of our most commented posts ever.
