Description

Opened in 2024, The Asberry, located at 1200 Sumner Road SE, is a mixed-use building with 108 affordable rental apartments with a preference for those aged 55+, thoughtful amenities and over 5,000 square feet of retail space. With a landscape courtyard, a wellness room, a fitness center, a community room and a rooftop amenity space, The Asberry is a hub for engagement and community.

This is the first on-site building for the Barry Farm redevelopment - a multi year project that replaces the former Barry Farm public housing with a vibrant mixed-use, mixed-income community. Phase I is creating 432 apartments in 3 new, attractive multifamily buildings and 115 modern townhomes, totaling 33,000 square feet of living space. The new construction uses Passive House standards, reducing the building's environmental footprint. Phase 1 has also made significant improvements to the site's infrastructure and surrounding roads.
