CIM Group Completes Renovation of Amenities at Mason at Van Dorn Apartment Community in Alexandria
ALEXANDRIA, Va.--CIM Group announced today that it has completed renovations on the amenity spaces at Mason at Van Dorn, the 1,180-unit apartment community formerly known as EOS Twenty-One. Mason at Van Dorn consists of 14 four- and five-story buildings situated on an approximately 30-acre site at 140 South Van Dorn Street in Alexandria, Virginia, which provides residents with abundant open space on manicured grounds.
The community features multiple common and recreation areas, which have been upgraded with new finishes, furniture, and equipment. The large club house features a variety of congregation areas including lounges, bar area, kids’ room, business center, game room, fitness center, and theatre room. Mason at Van Dorn also offers an on-site convenience store and deli.
CIM’s renovation program also included converting multiple areas into modern amenities to better serve Mason at Van Dorn’s residents such as creating an Amazon Hub package area and Tide Dry Cleaning locker area from the tennis shop; transforming a playground near one of the two pools to a grill area; adding a fully-equipped kids’ playground at the former site of a volleyball court; and upgrading the large dog park, Wiggly Field, with artificial turf, installing new equipment, and a pet wash station.
