The Washington Business Journal notes permits issued for Fort Totten Square signage:

300 Riggs Road NE: Roughly 17 signs will be installed on the JBG Cos.’ soon-to-deliver Fort Totten Square project, including signs announcing the Wal-Mart, a restaurant and parking. Fort Totten Square will feature 350 apartments and an urban format Wal-Mart.

We are a bit delinquent in posting the January 15 construction update from JBG:

The Fort Totten Square project is 85% complete. Interior finishes continue in all 345 apartment units along with the associated balconies with railings, wall and ceiling finishes.  The turnover process of apartment units from the contractor has commenced and the final first floor occupancy inspection is scheduled for early spring. The north retail area at the corner of Riggs Road and Chillum Place will be completed in the next few months and interior retail construction of these spaces will commence.

The brick work is complete on the façade of the residential garage on Chillum Place and fence infills and lighting is all that remains on the garage structure. The two story lobby entrance glass enclosure to the apartment building is underway at the arrival court as are the canopies. Work continues in the amenity areas of the building and the club room and fitness area located between the two courtyards is in the final finish stages with millwork, trims and final painting. The façade treatments on the courtyard elevations are complete and most all of the trees are planted in the courtyards. Streetscape site work activity will continue through the winter, weather permitting, as new street light pole bases will be installed along Riggs Road along with new engineered tree pits and finally new sidewalks.
