Location is integral to Reynard’s identity. Just steps from Takoma Metro and the expansive greenery of Rock Creek Park, the community offers immediate access to both the pulse of the city and the restorative quiet of nature. Its position within a vibrant urban village further enriches daily life, with cultural, culinary, and recreational opportunities seamlessly woven into the neighborhood fabric.

Balancing Refinement with Approachability

The architecture of Reynard embodies a comfortably elegant aesthetic with the facades echoing traditional forms and rhythms, while modern interventions introduce light, openness, and flexibility. This duality allows Reynard to resonate with the eclectic mix of District residents it serves, offering a home that is both familiar and refreshingly distinct.

Beyond its spaces, Reynard cultivates a lifestyle defined by connection. Thoughtfully integrated live/work units reflect the evolving patterns of urban life, providing adaptability for residents who blur the lines between home, creativity, and profession. Common areas and outdoor amenities are designed as extensions of the residences, encouraging social interaction while embracing the lush natural setting and adjacent neighborhood hub.

At Reynard, design becomes the medium through which community, culture, and convenience intersect. The result is a place that not only provides high-quality residences but also fosters a sense of belonging, discovery, and delight—where historical inspiration and modern urban living meet in harmony.
