During the early 1970's, local developer Calvin Cafritz purchased single-family residences located at Connecticut Ave.
between Military Rd. and Kanawha St., encompassing ten originally-platted single-family homes on just over one acre
of total land, and razed them. In the mid-1980's, planning started on a multi-dwelling building, but the project never
went beyond the planning stage. (For additional history and photos, visit 5333 Connecticut Neighborhood Coalition.)
During the summer of 2013, the property was measured and "tested," however it wasn't until December 2013 when
a neighbor just happened to discover building permits filed by the Cafritz Company, the Chevy Chase Community
learned about the construction plans for the property. Construction work began the first week of September 2013.
