First Look: Inside the Corey Condos in Trinidad

Until now, DC’s Trinidad has been a neighborhood of single-family rowhouses with some small, multifamily buildings scattered among them. Larger-scale condo and apartment projects have kept mostly to the H Street Corridor, just to the south. The Corey, a 49-condo, mixed-use building from Lock 7 Development, changes that. Its first few residents recently moved in, and more than half of its units are sold or under contract. (Ditto Residential is finishing up another, similarly sized building a block away.)

The Corey’s remaining units range from a 461-square-foot studio for $319,900 to a 1,050-square-foot, two-bedroom, two-bath for $609,900. The priciest unit, listed for $700,000, has already sold (McWilliams Ballard is handling sales). Lock 7 is clearly targeting buyers who aren’t car-dependent—while the building has only eight parking spaces, it has an impressive bike room, plus a wall-mounted flatscreen in its lobby showing the area’s public transit schedules in real time.

Here’s a look inside.
