WASHINGTON, DC—Carr Properties broke ground today on Midtown Center, an 862,000 square foot, 14-story, trophy office building at the corner of 15th & L streets, NW that is replacing the onetime headquarters of the Washington Post. The completed project will be anchored by Fannie Mae’s new National Headquarters.

Midtown Center was designed by New York-based SHoP Architects. It will have two full-height curtain wall office towers separated by an European-style public plaza that was inspired by the historic L’Enfant city plan. There will also be 50,000-square feet of retail, divvied up between the 15,000-square foot retail plaza fronting on L Street and a less formal 10,000-square foot retail alley fronting on 15th Street.
