Urban Atlantic Welcomes First Residents to Luxury Apartment Community In Heart Of Prince George’s County, Maryland Economic Hub And Transportation Gateway

Debut of Stella offers vibrant transit-oriented lifestyle plus stunning amenities in opportunity-rich community

(WASHINGTON, DC) — Urban Atlantic has welcomed the first residents to Stella, a luxury apartment community that will be instrumental in anchoring one of Prince George’s County, Maryland’s newest economic engines, the transportation gateway at New Carrollton. Just 20 minutes from Capitol Hill in the nation’s capital and steps away from Metro transit, Stella is named for its location at a “star” crossroads and redefines life in a rapidly rising live-work-play neighborhood.

“Stella is at the forefront of a successful public and private partnership, an endeavor enriched by the determination of county and state leaders to bring new prosperity to New Carrollton while leveraging federal tax incentives for communities that are poised for growth,” said Vicki Davis, Managing Partner and co-founder of Urban Atlantic. “Green infrastructure investments by the county set the stage for a project that would become among the first in Maryland to benefit from the federal program created in 2017.”

“We are excited to welcome new residents and families to this fantastic community and into this premiere building in New Carrollton, one of our prime transit-oriented locations in the County,” said Prince George’s County Executive Angela Alsobrooks. “Not only will this building offer great amenities to its residents, but it serves as a great example of what we can do to create and expand communities when we work closely with our state partners and development entities to create housing for our growing County.”

Stella offers a galaxy of stunning residential amenities, an inviting residential destination within an existing employment hub that is poised to grow well beyond its current count of 10,000+ daily workers. Stella features 282 apartments ranging from about 500 square feet to more than 1,200 square feet with multiple floor plans that include studios, one-, two- and three-bedroom and penthouse units.  Oversized windows allow abundant natural light. Sleek wood-style plank flooring runs throughout, highlighting high-end finishes and contemporary cabinetry. Chef-inspired kitchens feature stainless steel appliances, large ranges, dishwashers, in-sink disposals, and more. Luxury baths are accented by quartz countertops, large-format tile flooring, and private soaking tubs. In addition, all apartments offer spacious closets, select fixtures, washers and dryers, cable and high-speed internet readiness, and keyless entry. Select units also feature large balconies and terraces. Rents start at $1600. 

Amenities include an expansive 2,000-square-foot, state-of-the-art fitness center with the latest cardio, weight training, and HIIT equipment, a dedicated exercise studio for yoga and other classes, a front desk  concierge is on hand to assist with in-home services and pet grooming station onsite

Stella is an integral part of the county’s vision for New Carrollton, a transit-focused community where the Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Authority (WMATA) and Kaiser Permanente claim expansive administrative space and plans for new offices. Advancing a master plan developed by Urban Atlantic, the first phase of the New Carrollton office complex delivered a 176,000-square-foot administrative building for anchor tenant Kaiser Permanente in 2019. Two new WMATA building sites nearby will also create a welcoming-walkable connection to Amtrak, MARC, Greyhound and Metro’s Orange Line and future Purple Line. And an estimated 30-million train-rider views are available to high-profile enterprises occupying an eventual 1.1 million square feet of office space. 

The opening of Stella cements the arrival of a 3.5 million square-foot plan for the area around a multi-modal transportation hub that has been designated “number one” in the State of Maryland by Prince George’s County Executive Angela Alsobrooks. Growth will be further accelerated by Urban Atlantic planning that also encompasses entertainment, dining, and additional residential opportunities. Pre-development on a second multi-family development is expected to begin in the fourth quarter of 2021.
