What started as Foulger-Pratt's ambitious 55-acre mixed-use vision in the early 2000s has now spawned its newest offspring: EYA's 85 Northside brownstones just across from Park Potomac.

Developer EYA first entered the space 15 years ago with the original Brownstones at Park Potomac, and now they're back with what amounts to Brownstones 2.0 for a new generation of discerning buyers.

The Cambridge, Edinburgh, and Nottingham floor plans range from 3-5 bedrooms and up to 4.5 baths for $1.1 million to $1.6 million, each featuring rooftop terraces perfect for hosting book club while pretending you’re in a European capital.

The largest Nottingham model boasts 3,470 square feet and a 360-square-foot rooftop terrace perfect for contemplating whether your wine collection has outgrown your current storage situation.

These modern brownstones feature optional private elevators for those who've reached the practical life stage where avoiding stairs isn't laziness but wisdom, while still maintaining the kind of premium finishes that make downsizing feel more like upgrading.

Compare all floor plans or take a virtual tour of the Cambridge.
