Black Hill in Germantown is a new community being developed by Lerner Enterprises, of Rockville, MD. The community will be located 1.5 miles north of Germantown Town Center, on the west side of Interstate 270.  Black Hill in Germantown will have easy access to I-270 and the Black Hill Regional Park with walking and cycling trails and nature parks!
The 110-acre Black Hill in Germantown will eventually become approximately 3 million square feet of mixed-use, including more than 1,200 housing units, 1.1 million square feet of office, a centrally located 350-room hotel and 91,000 square feet of street-level retail.  It also includes Tribute at Black Hill, a 140-unit senior living building now under construction. It is expected to open in the fall of 2019.

First Stages of Black Hill in Germantown

The first phase of Black Hill in Germantown, designed by Baltimore’s Hord Coplan Macht, is a 355-unit residential community, Black Hill Apartments. The first phase of residential development for the 171-acre Black Hill community will set the tone for the character of the entire mixed-use development. Hord Coplan Macht will eventually build 649 total units, focused along a central green space and organized by a gridded street network. The 4- story buildings have integral garages and will each be adjacent to public green spaces.

The landscape design features a rolling set of lawns, corner parks and a set of perimeter black hill in Germantowntrails that connect with the Black Hill Regional Park and the Seneca Creek.

The project will feature contemporary, open floor plans, streamlined kitchens, fitness center, multiple play areas, picnic facilities, a bocce courtyard, a clubhouse, outdoor pool and exercise lawn.

“Black Hill will offer a vibrant sense of place in an easily accessible natural setting; our future residents will appreciate the many fine details that have been included in our new community,” Mark Lerner, Lerner principal (and principal owner of the Washington Nationals), said in a statement.
