We’ve finally got a first peek at detailed new plans for the long-awaited redevelopment of the St. Elizabeths campus.

The centerpiece of the project — a five-building, 650,000 square-foot development on the site of the historic campus in Ward 8 — is set to feature a large public park, a hotel, affordable housing, a retail space featuring local businesses, and a chefs-in-residence program led by the José Andrés Group, per plans filed with the city.

D.C. developer Redbrick submitted plans to the D.C. Historic Preservation Office late last week. The project is being dubbed “Sycamore & Oak,” named after nearby roads.

Along with the plans are renderings, providing a first look at concepts and designs. Urban Turf first reported on the updated plans.

Renderings show five buildings connected by a roof with a large 80,000-square-foot public park with a performance pavilion in the middle.

Within the buildings, there are plans for a hotel, affordable housing units, and 30,000 square feet of retail space featuring a grocery store, restaurants, and eight local businesses.

Those businesses, which have been previously announced, include wellness center Black Bella, Paradyce Clothing Company, and boutique The Museum.

The eight shops will initially be located in an “interim retail village” near the Congress Heights Metro while construction continues on the larger development. The interim space broke ground last summer and was originally set to open late last year. However, its opening has since been pushed to late spring, two shops told DCist/WAMU.

The chefs-in-residence program will be guided by José Andrés Group. Much is still unknown about how it will operate and what restaurateurs will be involved.

“Our Chefs-in-Residence program features restaurateurs that share a commitment to serving the best locally-sourced food,” reads the application. “José Andrés Group will offer best in class operational support and know-how.”

The development will also include at least 150 affordable residences available to households earning between 30% and 80% of median family income.

The next step for the project is for it to go through the historic review approval process.

This more than half-million-square-foot redevelopment is just one of the number of completed and ongoing projects set to transform the former site of a federally-funded psychiatric hospital in Southeast.

The Entertainment and Sports Arena, a yet-to-open $375 million hospital, and a city-run psychiatric facility are also on the campus.

This story has been updated to clarify that there remains an active psychiatric hospital on the campus.
