The first phase of The Wharf opened in October 2017 and the second and final phase is currently under construction. When construction is complete, the neighborhood will encompass 24 acres (9.7 ha) of land, 50 acres (20.2 ha) of water, and contain 3.2 million square feet (297,290 sq m) of retail, residential, and entertainment space along 1 mile (1.61 km) of the Potomac River shoreline from the Francis Case Memorial Bridge to Fort McNair.The idea of redeveloping the waterfront gained momentum with District officials in the early 2000s when the Anacostia Waterfront Corporation was created to oversee the redevelopment of the Southwest Waterfront neighborhood. The redevelopment was intended to reconnect the neglected and isolated portions of the southwest quadrant with downtown Washington, D.C., and make the area accessible and attractive to pedestrians while enhancing the existing community. Developers settled on The Wharf as the project name at the suggestion of D.C. Congresswoman Eleanor Holmes Norton, who recalled that this section of the Southwest Waterfront was known as The Wharf during the 19th and early 20th centuries.
