Eye Street at Prather’s Alley is one step closer to becoming a more vibrant experience for those who live, work, do business or entertain in Mount Vernon Triangle with the addition of 455 Eye Street Apartments. Owned by Equity Residential and set to open June 1, the 174-unit building will welcome hundreds of residents to a block that has undergone significant transformation the past two years including the addition of consumer, fitness and healthy fast-casual retail. The building’s design is a translation of its original industrial aesthetic, traced throughout to establish a meaningful relationship between old and new:

• The existing historic warehouse, auto works building and two townhomes have been preserved and are complemented by residential towers accented with glass and brick.
• These unique homes are situated around a contemporary courtyard, flanked by an original exposed brick facade and lush foliage.
• Residents will enjoy a state-of-the-art fitness center, roof deck with pool and spacious resident lounges.

Unit types include studio, one- and two-bedroom apartment units, lofts and townhomes, with quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, wide plank hard surface floors and in-home washers and dryers. 455 Eye will be complemented by a retail space, which will be home to Prather’s on the Alley, a lofty restaurant with an approachable American-themed menu featuring both indoor and outdoor seasonal seating. Equity Residential tells us they are excited to be further expanding their existing presence at 425 Mass with another fine property in the MVT.
