1750 H St. Nearly Ready to Open Doors

WASHINGTON, DC-A new office building has sprouted up in downtown DC as contractor The Clark Construction Group reports substantial completion of 1750 H St. Clark is the general contractor on the project, which is a development endeavor of Washington, DC-based CarrAmerica Urban Development LLC. The new 171,000-sf class A structure features three floors of underground parking, and it will have 5,000 sf of ground level retail space available for lease upon final construction completion.

“We started construction in May 2001,” Clark’s Elizabeth Tuico tells GlobeSt.com. “And the contract price for the building is $14.4 million.” The 11-story edifice designed by Einhorn Yaffee Prescott Architecture & Engineering, also sports a street-level exercise facility. “1750 H St. offers tenants a premium location in the heart of the Central Business District that is within walking distance to an abundance of amenities, including two Metro stations and several of our country’s most important institutions,” CarrAmerica president Robert O. Carr notes in a statement announcing the project. “We feel confident that 1750 H St., with its modern yet refined architecture, will be extremely well received by those in search of a high quality CBD address.”
