BETHESDA, MD—Federal Realty Investment Trust has unveiled renderings of its new headquarters at 909 Rose, an office building located in its Pike & Rose mixed-use project. The office space was designed by Wingate Hughes Architects.
The locally-based REIT's new office include an abundance of natural light from floor to ceiling windows, authentic materials and integration within the 24-acre Pike & Rose neighborhood. Perhaps most interesting is one of the amenities the REIT is offering: namely an opportunity to join a CSA (community-supported agriculture) program at the largest soil-based rooftop farm in the Mid-Atlantic region. These programs, found across the country, are usually subscription-based, allowing members to receive fresh produce on the regular from local farms.
Other touches: There is an interconnecting staircase between Federal's two floors, a raised lounge featuring living room seating, strong acoustic privacy and natural “bump into” space, according to Gavin Daniels, principal of Wingate Hughes.
The second office building in the LEED ND neighborhood, 909 Rose will be 11-stories and offer Class A, LEED Silver designated space, which is being designed by Hickok Cole Architects.
