RESTON, Va., Sept. 06, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Comstock Holding Companies, Inc. (Nasdaq: CHCI) (“Comstock” or the “Company”), a leading developer, investor, and asset manager of mixed-use and transit-oriented properties in the Washington, D.C. region, announced today the acquisition of 1891 Metro Center Drive in Reston, Virginia on behalf of Comstock Partners, LC (“CP”), an affiliated, privately-held company.
