**EYA Finalizes Land Deal for Highlands Row Townhomes in National Landing**
EYA LLC has officially closed on the land for Highlands Row, a new townhome community set to rise in the heart of National Landing.
Highlands Row represents the next phase in a transformative, mixed-income expansion of the Crystal House Apartments complex. The development is the result of a public-private partnership involving Arlington County, Amazon’s Housing Equity Fund, EYA, True Ground Housing Partners, and the Washington Housing Conservancy.
Part of a broader five-phase infill redevelopment initiative, the project will expand the current 828-unit Crystal House Apartments with an additional 865 new housing units. Of those, 655 will be designated as affordable, underscoring the commitment to increasing access to housing across income levels within the community.
“This deal is a major step forward in delivering on our vision for Highlands Row,” said Jack Lester, Executive Vice President of Acquisitions and Development at EYA. “Highlands Row will offer residents a unique blend of urban connectivity and neighborhood charm, while honoring our commitment to provide new housing options to Arlington County.”
