Poplar Point

The proposed Anacostia-Green Line Transfer Station will be located in what will be Poplar Point, the restoration and revitalization project to return the Anacostia River and her surroundings to a healthier river and more sustainable community.

Also to be located there is the Poplar Point Stadium, a proposed 27,000-seat soccer-specific stadium, at a site across the Anacostia River from Nationals Park. It would house the D.C. United Major League Soccer team. The site, called Poplar Point, is Metro-accessible via the Anacostia station.

The stadium would be part of a planned 110-acre mixed-use development that would also include a hotel, offices, housing, and retail. The target date for completion is 2010.
