Baker Design Build filed civil engineering plans with the city June 26 for the Arlington Apartments, also known as the former FBI and Offshore Power Systems buildings along the Arlington Expressway.

Ownership has been working with the city toward negotiating assistance in turning the more than 16-acre site into up to almost 800 apartments, including 285 units among the first three buildings, to comprise affordable, workforce, moderate-income and market-rate housing.

The plans filed this week are for the site of the former FBI headquarters, whose redevelopment is well underway, along with a clubhouse/amenity center to serve residents in that first building and those expected in the next two structures.
