Onyx on First

Onyx on First was one of the pioneering apartment buildings to establish Navy Yard as a premier residential neighborhood. Delivered in 2008, this 266-unit Faison Development building is ideally located on the same block as Navy Yard Metro Green Line station, offering residents seamless transit connectivity. Behind the building's distinctive glass façade, residents enjoy luxurious amenities, contemporary conveniences, and unique floor plans with floor-to-ceiling windows that flood homes with natural light. The property features a fitness center, resident lounges, rooftop terrace, and modern common spaces. Onyx on First's location provides walkable access to Nationals Park, Whole Foods, Harris Teeter, and the neighborhood's diverse dining and entertainment options. The building represents the early vision of Navy Yard's transformation and continues to offer residents an established community with convenient amenities, direct Metro access, and a prime location in one of DC's most dynamic mixed-use neighborhoods.
