Square 483

Square 483 is a major development in Washington, D.C.'s Mount Vernon Triangle neighborhood. Located at the intersection of 5th and K Streets NW, it offers residents easy access to downtown D.C. This 14-story mixed-use project will feature approximately 550 residential units and ground-floor retail spaces. A collaboration between Steuart Investment Company and Boston Properties, the development aims to transform a 56,350-square-foot city block into a dynamic residential community.

Preliminary design plans draw inspiration from an active and engaging quaint neighborhood, the design is an ambitious blend of color, patterns and shapes that hint at an age-neutral spirit. It is a reflection of a resident who is playful but cultural, and at the same time serious about their career. Blurring work and play, they desire to live fully in a vivid and fast-paced environment.

Alluring vintage details in a modern context play an important role with the history of the neighborhood to create spaces that encourage collaboration, social interaction, and productivity for those seeking to work alone but together. Colorful vibrant pops of color and rich woods contrasting with a fresh palette are juxtaposed to create a modern environment that pays homage to the surrounding culture and history while providing the comfort of modern life. Greenery and natural elements create a calming environment that can transform into social active environments that promote community and engagement.

Residents will benefit from a range of amenities designed to enhance urban living, such as a fitness center, secure bicycle storage, and landscaped rooftop terraces offering panoramic city views.
