History
West Village, opened in 2001, was built on an undeveloped assembly that was cleared in the 1980s for a large, master-planned urban community to be known as CityPlace. West Village was developed by Urban Partners, Henry S. Miller Interests, Phoenix Property Company, and The CityPlace Company. The original development, designed by Washington architect David M. Schwarz, is a mixed-use development with the retail portion managed by Urban Partners and the residential component managed by CIM. The name West Village is completely made up and is an attempt to link the development to the urban neighborhood in New York City. Over subsequent years the development has continued to stimulate further development as thousands of urban apartment homes have been constructed in the immediate vicinity.
