Landmark
High-end condos with plans to develop Landmark Mall
The community truly blossomed in the 2000s, with its replica 19th-century style buildings with brick exteriors and cupolas, and streets surrounding town-square green spaces with gazebos, making it a pedestrian-friendly enclave. It is the only planned community in Alexandria, says Khaneisha Pagan, lead buyer and listing specialist with the Erin K. Jones Team of Keller Williams. Cameron Station home prices range from $680,000 to almost $1 million. Landmark's original concrete-and-glass high-rise condo buildings still attract homebuyers -- units at buildings like Olympus average about $550,000.Plans call for Landmark Mall, a titan of shopping centers and a staple of 1980s suburban D.C. life, to be redeveloped as Inova Hospital at Landmark and a mixed-use community, all meant to infuse new life into the community. Pre-demolition, the mall site got in one last hurrah by serving as a filming location for "Wonder Woman '84" scenes. Pagan, who also lives in Landmark, says the development will include residential and commercial buildings, as well as an overpass to Duke Street, connecting it to more shopping and retail sites. The project is expected to take five years to reach full completion, but the final product is designed to enhance the community. "It is going to be a really nice area," Pagan says.
