Supposedly the new apartments being built right by the Rhode Island Ave metro will include retail. The "Rhode Island Row" website claims the new "urban community" will have restaurants, shops, and a "Main Street scene," whatever that means. Unfortunately though, the "main street" will not actually be on Rhode Island Ave, but rather in between two of the rows of apartments. I'm sure this piss poor urban design was intentional, since it allows this "luxury" complex to be isolated from the surrounding neighborhood, which is likely perceived by many potential tenants as sketchy.

Also, while I'm complaining - whoever chose the exterior finishes on those apartments should be fired. Way too many different colors and cheap-looking finishes. Ugh.
