WASHINGTON, DC—The Gray administration has selected a joint venture of Redbrick LMD and Gragg Cardona Partners to redevelop approximately 1.6 million-square feet of land at the St. Elizabeths East campus.
Officials expect the project to redevelop the former hospital complex into “a technology-focused, transit-oriented community” that will include retail, residential and commercial office space, according to the Washington Post.
DC Mayor Vincent Gray says, “By opening the Gateway DC Pavilion and the R.I.S.E. Demonstration Center (last year), we were able to reintroduce St. Elizabeths East to the community and lay the groundwork for what is possible on this historic campus. By selecting a master developer, we can move even closer to realizing that vision and creating an innovative space that's unlike any other in the District of Columbia.”
The Redbrick LMD-Gragg Cardona team was selected based on its experience with large-scale projects and the strength of its plan to fulfill the District's policy goals at St. Elizabeths East, District officials say. In addition to Redbrick and Gragg Cardona, members of the team are NVR, Inc.; JBGR, an affiliate of The JBG Companies; and Perkins Eastman.
The St. Elizabeths East Campus spans 183 acres and is located at 2700 Martin Luther King, Jr. Avenue SE. The first phase of development calls for 1.1 million square feet of residential space, 716,000 square feet of commercial space and 122,000 square feet of retail. Additionally, nearly a half million square feet will be reserved for so-called innovation purposes. See story in the Washington Post.
