Emerging Markets Level 2 Development has a track record of transforming emerging urban neighborhoods in Washington, DC, notably the 14th Street Corridor, and is now pursuing two major mixed-use residential developments in Union Market. This indicates opportunities for partnerships or capital-raising related to early-stage urban infill projects and neighborhood renaissance.

Expansion Potential Recent news shows Level 2 expanding beyond DC into Virginia with The Ace Apartments in Scott’s Addition, Richmond, via joint ventures with Cresset Partners and SJG Properties, signaling a readiness for more external investment, developer-led joint ventures, and strategic alliances.

Value Creation The firm emphasizes value creation through Class A mixed-use developments, entitlement navigation, and deep community engagement, suggesting sales opportunities around land use planning services, entitlements consulting, and stakeholder engagement packages for new projects.

Financing Alignment With revenue in the low to mid single-digit millions and active partnerships with investment sponsors like Cresset Partners, there is potential for financial products, mezzanine or equity financing partnerships, and advisory services aligned with their development cadence.

Local Expertise Deep knowledge of the DC real estate market and a history of community-driven projects present opportunities to offer local market intelligence, permitting, and regulatory navigation services to accelerate approvals and reduce risk for new developments.
