1050 K Street is a 143,000 square foot office building located in downtown Washington, D.C. The first level provides retail space while floors 2-11 are designated as office spaces. Below grade, there are an additional 4 levels of parking. The street facing facades are clad in an energy efficient curtain wall, and the various roof levels boast two different types of green roof systems. 1050 K Street is expected to obtain a LEED CS Gold rating upon completion. |
As part of the Library of Congress, The National Audio Visual Conservation Center is designed to conserve, store, and play all different types of media. Stretching almost 400,000 SF, 3 of the 4 levels are almost entirely below grade. With about $120 million in construction costs, NAVCC is expected to be completed in February of 2007.
