Buzzard Point, Peninsula district at Potomac and Anacostia rivers, Washington DC, United States
Buzzard Point extends along two rivers, featuring modern residential buildings, waterfront paths, marinas, and the Audi Field soccer stadium.
The area, originally named Turkey Buzzard Point in 1673, transformed from a military fortification site into an industrial zone throughout the nineteenth century.
The district integrates maritime elements with sports facilities, as demonstrated by the presence of multiple marinas and the DC United home stadium.
The neighborhood connects to central Washington DC through M Street SW and South Capitol Street SW, with increasing transportation options for residents.
The Stacks development project will add two million square feet of mixed-use space to the district by 2025, reshaping the waterfront landscape.
